NV Salty Blonde Sauvignon Blanc

Aromas of passion fruit, green apple, and grapefruit integrate with savory notes of fresh herbs and a subtle, rocky minerality. The palate is light-bodied and refreshing, featuring a core of tropical citrus and a delicate, semi-sparkling effervescence. It displays a bright acidity and a clean, lemony finish that leads to a crisp saline edge, characteristic of its "better-for-you" style which emphasizes a lower calorie and alcohol profile.

The winemaking team utilizes Sauvignon Blanc fruit harvested at an optimal balance of flavor and low sugar levels. The juice is fermented in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to preserve the vibrant primary fruit and aromatic intensity. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes a specialized filtration process to maintain its low-calorie profile and 9% ABV. A gentle carbonation is introduced at bottling to create a light, frizzante texture, resulting in a wine that is both vegan-friendly and gluten-free.

The fruit is grown in the Western Cape region of South Africa. The site is defined by its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, where persistent sea breezes and coastal fog moderate the temperatures of the vineyards. This cooling influence allows the Sauvignon Blanc to develop its signature aromatic intensity and refined acidity while maintaining a lean, mineral-driven structure. Imported by Biagio Cru, this wine reflects a modern trend in the region towards producing approachable, lifestyle-oriented wines that highlight the unique maritime terroir of the Cape.
