Cape Vue Sauvignon Blanc 2025 Per Case
Description
Cape Vue Sauvignon Blanc 2025
A precise Franschhoek Sauvignon Blanc, fresh, layered, and lees-textured.
The Cape Vue Sauvignon Blanc 2025 is made from a single block harvested early to retain acidity and aromatic lift. Time on primary lees adds structure and mouthfeel, giving the wine both freshness and substance.
This is a Sauvignon Blanc built around clarity, tension, and precision rather than sharpness alone, making it especially effective at the table.
