Waterkloof Circumstance Sauvignon Blanc is the Pouilly Fumé of Stellenbosch. It's simply stunning! Think crushed laurel on the nose with more than a nuance of residual seaside salt. This Sauvignon Blanc has a big and textured palate with stone fruit and fennel hints – it is rich and minerally, showing even a slight rocky quality about it. As bracing as the wind through the vines at Waterkloof. Circumstance Sauvignon Blanc is ideal with fresh oysters or great with a goat's cheese.
"The wind-blasted slopes of the Schaapenberg are one of the best sites for Sauvignon Blanc in South Africa, producing small crops of intensely flavoured berries. Fermented in older French oak, this is nettley, tangy and zippy, with undertones of salt and umami and a core of lime and wet stones. 92 Pts Tim Atkin, South Africa Special report 2024"
