2017 Diemersdal MM Louw Sauvignon, Diemersdal, Durbanville

South Africa Durbanville

Pale lemon coloured, the nose is complex with a distinct grassy capsicum character and flinty notes. The palate is ripe and sweet fruited, yet very steely and bone dry, with capsicum, nettles and hints of gooseberry and fig. Very rounded and balanced with a long crisp finish.

Vinous

The 2017 MM Louw Sauvignon Blanc was picked at 24º Baumeé, crushed and destemmed with 24 hours’ skin contact. It seems a little anonymous and distant on the nose, but the palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, and the pretty, orange-zest- and nectarine-tinged finish partly makes up for the aromatics.
