KleinKloof, Sauvignon Blanc, Western Cape, South Africa 2024

The Joubert family acquired the Klein Simonsvlei property in 1898 and since then have been farming grapes for wine initially supplying the wholesale market in South Africa. In 1950 Daniel Joubert – “Niel” – took over the company and continued upgrading the cellar and the vineyards. The dream of bottling the family’s own label became true in 1994 when South African wines were first opened up to export. Today the third generation is in charge of the vineyards and winemaking.

On the nose the wine shows hints of ripe gooseberry, green apple and citrus. On the palate the wine has an uplifting intensity with stone fruit, citrus and green apple flavours that are refreshing and long2lasting. A very good entry level Sauvignon Blanc.
