Grower's Club, Sauvignon Blanc, Western Cape, 2017

Drinking Window: 2018 - 2019
Made from 10 separate parcels of vines scattered across the Western Cape, this has an impressive black and white pepperiness in both aroma and flavour. There's an intense pungency in the mouth, with bell pepper and gooseberry streaks, and the acid is clearly there but not overdone. It's just so peppery - probably best to drink with a chargrilled chicken salad or some strong goats cheese.
