Our Zevenwacht Z Collection Sauvignon Blanc 2023 secured a coveted spot in the prestigious FNB Sauvignon Blanc SA Top 10 competition. Established in 2007, this competition celebrates innovation and excellence in cultivating Sauvignon Blanc, recognizing winemakers crafting wines of true distinction. The Z Collection Sauvignon Blanc 2023 exemplifies this ethos with its vibrant expression of terroir. Harvested from selected vineyards, the wine showcases elegant notes of tropical fruit, citrus, and a crisp minerality that reflect the cool coastal influence on our estate.
This exceptional wine underwent meticulous vinification, being racked to a combination of French oak barrels and concrete eggs for fermentation. It matured on the gross lees for 8 months before final blending. This careful process lends depth, complexity, and a velvety texture to the wine. Designed to age gracefully, this Sauvignon Blanc will mature beautifully for up to five years, offering even greater nuances over time.
This accolade reinforces our commitment to innovation and quality, cementing Zevenwacht’s place among South Africa’s finest Sauvignon Blanc producers.
