About the wine
Crisp Reserve Sauvignon Blanc from your South African icon
This refreshing Sauvignon Blanc is flush with bright, tropical flavors and a zesty, mouth-watering touch of citrus, with a long, thirst-quenching finish that'll keep you coming back for more.
To craft her first Reserve-level Sauvignon Blanc for Angels, Carmen used your funding to work with hand-picked grapes from rolling hillside vineyards near Cape Town, where the cool Atlantic influence helps the fruit develop a fresh, complex cast of flavors that she's able to channel into the finished wine.
For Carmen, this wine is a testament to how well Sauvignon Blanc can grow in South Africa, and can stand up to some of the world's best. Bring home a bottle (or two) and taste it for yourself!
Best before
This Sauvignon Blanc can be enjoyed now as it is an absolute showpiece in terms of expression and palate depth. The Catoria Sauvignon Blanc over the years has proven itself worthy of aging. The flavor profile after a year is that of mushy peas and jalapenos yet creamy and powerful.
Serving advice
Enjoy the Catoria Sauvignon Blanc 2020 very cold for the most refreshing experience.
Food match
This Sauvignon Blanc will complement creamy seafood pasta beautifully.
