Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc 2025

Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc 2025 is a refined cool-climate Sauvignon Blanc that combines minerality, texture and freshness in a sophisticated South African style. Sourced from carefully selected vineyards across Hemel-en-Aarde and Walker Bay, this wine expresses both terroir complexity and remarkable balance.

Product Story

Crafted to showcase site and soil rather than overpowering varietal intensity, Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc is made in a restrained and elegant style that balances Old World minerality with New World texture.

The fruit is sourced from a combination of clay-rich shale soils, decomposed granite and sandstone-derived vineyards, each contributing unique character to the final blend. Clay-rich soils provide texture and structure, granitic soils add perfume and openness, while sandstone soils bring bright acidity and saline minerality.

A small portion of the wine was barrel fermented in neutral oak barrels to add complexity and palate weight without masking freshness.

The exceptional 2025 vintage delivered healthy vineyards, small concentrated berries and naturally high acidity, resulting in a Sauvignon Blanc with purity, energy and precision.

Tasting Notes

This Sauvignon Blanc displays vibrant citrus freshness with layered minerality and saline tension. Aromas of lime, green citrus and subtle stone fruit are supported by textured complexity and a long, focused finish.

The palate is energetic and refined, balancing freshness, structure and elegance while avoiding overly pungent varietal character.
