2006 Sebeka® Sauvignon Blanc
Sebeka Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrantly clean New World style wine that features bright tropical citrus flavors accented by subtle mineral notes, evoking rich soil undertones. Its refreshingly crisp and dry taste pairs well with a wide variety of cuisines. Sauvignon Blanc is best if enjoyed within one year of release, but should be able to age in the bottle for up to two years. The 2006 Sebeka South Africa Sauvignon Blanc garnered several accolades; it was recognized as a “Best Buy” by USA Today and Wine Enthusiast and also earned high scores from Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast.
For the 2006 Sebeka South Africa Sauvignon Blanc, the best Sauvignon Blanc grapes were thoughtfully hand-picked and de-stemmed; they were then crushed, pressed and allowed to settle overnight. To retain a crisp structure, the natural acidity of the grapes, and evoke vivacious fruit characteristics, each lot was fermented in upright steel tanks. The juice was allowed a slow fermentation over three weeks at a cool temperature, 14-18°C, to further enhance it with tropical fruit and mineral flavors.
