4 Stars & 17.5/20 - Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine reviews.
"Bright, even, pale straw yellow with some depth. The nose is softly full, penetrating with aromas of mango, guava, underlying citrus and subtle herbs. Medium-bodied, aromas of mango and guava melded with lime, grapefruit and zest. The mouthfeel is round and smooth with subtle, ripe-textured fine phenolic. Mouth-watering acidity rushed in and balanced the tropical ripe fruit. This is a soft-textured Sauvignon Blanc displaying tropical fruit with a citrus core and balanced acidity. Match with pork and white fish over the next 2-3 years."

We know New Zealand makes some of the world best Sauvignon Blanc. South Africa has the most similar climate and styles on offer. We reckon this little Savvy gives as good as it gets! Displaying fresh, ripe yellow fruit flavours with a hint of waxy lime, as well as some leafy herbal notes which make for a zippy, racy wine.

Boutinot has been refining and redefining its Sauvignon Blanc vineyards over many years and work with numerous Coastal growers to best express the specific terroirs of this region that is influenced by that cooling Atlantic Ocean breeze. The soil type is a variety of decomposed granite, shale and limestone and the plots are all unirrigated.
