2023 Black Elephant - Two Dogs, A Peacock, And A Horse Sauvignon Blanc, Franschhoek, South Africa

The wine has a bright green hue and shows an abundance of tropical fruit flavors, grapefruit and guava. The fruit carries onto the palate and is balanced by the richness of the barrel ferment and Semillon, adding texture and weight to the crisp dry finish. 

The fruit for our 2022 Sauvignon Blanc was sourced from various vineyard sites around the Western Cape of South Africa. Each site contributes a different flavor profile to the final blend as it grows on diverse soil types and slopes. Each vineyard is handled separately to capture its unique personality.
