Product information

Our cloudscape wines come from specially selected vineyards on sunny hillsides, where cool climate grapes thrive under a protective blanket of cloud which forms each afternoon as the cool Atlantic wind hits warm air rising over the mountains.

Cloudscape Sauvignon Blanc comes from vineyards in Elgin, traditionally an apple growing region. Freshly cut grass, hints of asparagus and sliced red apple flavours make this the perfect match for sea bass grilled on the braai.

Tasting Notes
Like all good Elgin Sauvignon Blanc's, this is as aromatic as South African Sauv. Blanc gets. Aromas of kiwi fruit, lime, sliced apple and pineapple abound on a rich palate balanced with firm grassy notes
History
The area of Elgin is located in the Overberg Region, which is renowned for its apples. This is the gateway to the southern Cape and provides the visitor with stunning views amongst the orchards, vineyards, natural fynbos and flowers as well as the forests.
Regional Information
Cloudscape Sauvignon Blanc comes from vineyards in Elgin, traditionally an apple growing region and South Africa's coolest climate wine region.. The famously bowl-shaped topography of this maritime valley encourages self-regulating cooler temperature control - as the ground heats up, the valley sucks in colder Atlantic air causing clouds to condense and form a protective cover from the sun.
Current Vintage
2017
Vinification Details
To beat the heat, Elgin Sauvignon Blanc is picked in the early morning hours and transported to the winery in chilled trucks. The grapes are placed in a chiller room before being gently crushed to maximise all that crunchy appeal. Finally, the wine is fermented and racked into steel before being gently filtered and bottled.

Excellent choice

Goes down very well. Smooth, not too acidic, lemony without beign too zesty. We had it with fish and it was the perfect accompaniment.
