Middelvlei Rooster Sauvignon Blanc

Diemersdal’s reputation for pushing the boundaries with Sauvignon Blanc is expressed in this innovative wine style. After harvest, the juice for this wine was frozen at -20 degrees celsius and kept in this state for five months. It was then thawed and fermented in the heart of the Cape winter, producing a uniquely tropical style of Sauvignon blanc totally unique for South Africa.

The most versatile wine when it comes to food pairings. From salads to seafood and peas to pavlovas. Cheeses that pair well with this wine are Fontina, Brie, Swiss, Feta, Gouda, and Gruyère, and add fresh herb Hummus with spring vegetables to make a perfect platter.

Tropical flavours abound in this bright and lively wine. These grapes are harvested slightly later in order to maximize the wonderful tropical fruit notes that this wine has to offer. Our winemaker crafts this wine to suit a wide range of tastes and occasions, with the focus being on enjoyment.

An explosion of tropical fruit on the nose – melon, pineapple, citrus, lichi, and passion fruit. Crisp, light, and easy drinking with a lingering fresh finish.
