Boplaas Bobbejaanberg Sauvignon Blanc 2023 (6-case)
Named after the troop of marauding Baboons (Bobbejane in Afrikaans) which each year decimate the already meagre crop from the windswept vines planted at over 650m in elevation in the shadow of the craggy peaks of the Outeniqua range in the Upper-Langkloof ward, the Bobbejaanberg is testament to Sauvignon Blanc’s fickle terroir specific nature and these vines at the very edge of the Cape’s winelands. Hand harvested at optimal ripeness, in the cool morning hours and hastily trucked to Boplaas, the Bobbejaanberg Sauvignon was crushed and allowed a period of skin contact prior to a gentle pressing with only the free-run juice cold fermented in stainless steel and allowed a period of lees contact prior to bottling with a very light filtration.
Sold as a case of 6 x 750ml bottles.
