Buitenverwachting Husseys Vlei Sauvignon Blanc 2017
Buitenverwachting's Husseys Vlei is an award winning Sauvignon Blanc which takes its name from the estates coldest, most south facing vineyards, situated high up on Constantiaberg, referred to as “Husseys Vlei”. The distinct refreshing characteristic of this unique microclimate is fully captured in the wine which displays racy, green pepper and grassy style notes with crisp acidity and a lingering finish. A nice exception to the ripe style of Sauvignon Blancs.
