Franschhoek Cellar Staue de Femme Sauvignon Blanc’s expressive tropical aromas tinged with capsicum open up to attractive Cape gooseberry, grapefruit and pineapple fruit flavours balanced by a lively but gentle coated acidity that follows through to a beautifully fresh finish of pleasing length. A hint of Semillon adds breadth and fills the mid-palate.
Food pairing: A delicious accompaniment to prawns on the barbecue, teriyaki salmon, creamy mussels or chicken wraps.
Ageing potential: Optimally intended for enjoyment in the vibrant freshness of youth, yet may be cellared for up to four years from vintage.

string(567) "Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, Marlborough, Darling, Margaret River… Villages and regions which all have one thing in common; their own individual take on Sauvignon Blanc. The variety has classic zingy freshness, citrus notes and in the case of Marlborough in particular, gooseberry aromatics and flavours. Very pure, it can often be opulent yet also the opposite, with taut mineral notes. A classic, modern varietal with huge popularity, usually unoaked, there are an increasing number of food-focused expressions with a little barrel maturation adding texture and lift."
