Vergelegen GVB White 2019 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Stellenbosch
R440
'66% Sauvignon Blanc and 34% Semillon. Fermented and matured in barrel for nine months. Attractive aromatics of white peach, elderflower, thatch and fynbos plus some leesy complexity while the palate shows great composure and refinement – dense fruit plays off against punchy acidity, the finish long and pithy.' – Winemag Prescient Sauvignon Blanc Sémillon Report 2021, Top 10 (95/100)
'Tight, focused and beautifully integrated with herbal (fynbos), grapefruit flavours, ripe tropical notes, and a long, focused aftertaste. Enjoy with fresh seafood. Probably one of our best vintages ever and without a doubt one of the great white wines of the world.' – Winemaker
