Nitida Sauvignon Blanc Durbanville
Nitida
South Africa - Western Cape - Durbanville

Around 85% of the grapes for this wine were sourced from Nitida farm itself, with the balance coming from the neighboring farms, to bring more complexity to this example of Durbanville terroir.

A dazzling dance of nectarine, pawpaw and pink fleshy guava envelops the palate, as hints of orange orchid and white pepper spice swoop in for the finale.
