The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.
Incredibly delicious, exceptionally distinctive. This Sauvignon Blanc from Warwick Wine Estate is unique and outstanding. Sommeliers, vinologists, and wine connoisseurs worldwide have praised this white wine since its very first harvest. Now it's time to convince you, the wine drinker. We don't expect this to be a difficult task. Every year, we look forward to the latest vintage of Warwick Professor Black. Why? Because this Warwick Sauvignon Blanc seems to get better every year.
Warwick is located in Stellenbosch, arguably South Africa's most beautiful wine region. All the renowned wineries are still based in this region, which is just half an hour from Cape Town. For years, Warwick has been surprising friends and foes with its sublime wines. Profound, complex, and consistently good: these are the words used to describe their wines. This Professor Black is no exception. When you take a sip of Warwick Professor Black Sauvignon Blanc, you'll immediately recognize the towering quality for which the winery is renowned.
The Sauvignon Blanc grapes grow on beautiful plots in Stellenbosch. A walk through the impressive vineyards evokes a fairytale feeling; the South African landscape is truly magnificent. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are harvested by hand early in the morning. This preserves their freshness and ensures minimal loss of flavor. The aroma evokes a pleasant spring day: elderflower, gooseberries, and nettles. A knowledgeable wine drinker will immediately recognize a hint of lime and passion fruit. The lively flavor is punchy, yet remains pleasant and clean. Because the wine matures for several months on its own lees, the freshness remains firm on the palate. This makes Warwick Professor Black Sauvignon Blanc refreshing, but not everyone's cup of tea.
