Tasting Notes
"Utterly delicious...The 2024 Fleurfontein is a blend of 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% vine-dried Roussanne. This straw wine matured for 18 months in seasoned 500-litre barrels. It has a perfumed, well-defined bouquet with wild peach, tangerine and nectarine scents that blossom in the glass. The palate has the exquisite balance that it nearly always shows, with nectarine and mango, bright and refreshing towards the finish." Neal Martin, Vinous.com
More Info
Produced from exclusively estate grown fruit, and a true labour of love! This is not a botrytised wine, or a straw wine. Raisins are produced by pinching the stem of the grape bunches while they ripen on the vine which stops the translocation of fluids in and out of the grapes and allows them to dry naturally during the warm summer. The name comes from a beautiful spring on the farm near the Sauvignon Blanc vineyard from which the grapes are sourced.
