Clarington Sauvignon Blanc 2021
R129.00
Aroma
Mixed tropical notes with a touch of ripe fig makes this wine irresistible.
Palate
The delicate flavours build further on the palate and shows concentration and great balance. Tropical and green notes are rounded off with a long, mineral finish.
Vinification and Maturation
Grapes were carefully selected from exceptional sites with exposure to cool afternoon sea breezes. Harvesting was done at perfect ripeness during early morning hours to achieve the complexity that is expected from a modern Sauvignon blanc. Skin contact before cold fermentation was done to enhance concentration, with post fermentation lees contact to build the palate weight. This wine shows true class on nose and palate.

Description
Inspired by the natural relationship between art and wine, the Clarington bottle was perfected over several years, and specifically conceptualised to honour the art of winemaking.
An artist’s homage, it’s a perfect analogy for the wine itself. Deceptively simple, carefully considered and beautifully crafted. Every careful detail designed to underline the rich sensory experience of a fine wine.
The high gloss, organic ink coating, influenced by traditional block colouring, is a global patented design and a world first, with each bottle undergoing an intricate five-step process to deliver a vessel that is beautifully designed and visually impactful.
This quality execution of the design means that, whilst the wine should be enjoyed today, the beauty of each bottle can be appreciated for years to come, making Clarington as much a work of art on the outside as it is on the inside.
Much greater than the sum of its parts, Clarington is a story beyond the expertise, beyond the experience; it is a story of a team’s deep commitment to excellence. An embodiment of their desire to innovate and their obsession with creating a collection of wines that in every way, is more than an art… it is art.
