Description
The Amos Block is a unique bushvine vineyard of Sauvignon Blanc planted in 1965 and is the oldest existing block, or Mother Block, of the variety in South Africa. Only bottled in exceptional vintages and a feat for such a variety in the hot Swartland climate, this is the antithesis of Sauvignon Blanc. It has a wonderfully aromatic and energetic style, full of notes of fig, gooseberries, nettles with minerality and crisp acidity. It is bright and refreshing but with a lovely texture, making it more generous on the palate than you might expect.
Winemakers Comments “After three years in conversion, this vineyard is now officially certified organic. This, plus the end of the three year drought, has resulted in fantastic quality grapes, Enjoy! – Charl du Plessis –”
