This drink flaunts a light straw color with pretty green hues. A whiff of the delicious white wine exhibits tropical fruit aromas coupled with notes of herbs, followed by lime and lemon citrus aromas. These fragrances are replicated on an attractive palate with gooseberry characters. The wine ends in a clean and crisp finale. Enjoy this wine whilst young and fresh with spicy grilled chicken or a crisp summer salad.

THE STYLE
Trumpeter Sauvignon Blanc is an elegant, crisp white wine with yellow-green undertones. The nose proffers strong, persistent fruity aromas blended with notes of grapefruit, herbs and freshly cut grass. The mouthfeel is smooth and fruity with citrus character, and a refreshing acidity.

Pale yellow with steely glints. On the nose, fresh herbaceous aromas typical of the variety (freshly cut grass) combine with citrus notes. Flavour in the mouth reiterates the aromas, finishing with a long, memorable and slightly unctuous sensation.

The grapes used to make this wine come from two adjacent old vineyards planted in 1981 and 1984 respectively. For obvious reasons the one vineyard is simply called the Spice Block and the other the Long Block. Yields are rarely above 7t/ha and therefore naturally produce wines of structure and superior concentration. Our soils consist primarily of deep, well-weathered granite with moderate amounts of clay and iron. Such soils elevate the aromatics and promote finesse in the wine.
