Description
Capel Vale Regional Series Margaret River Sauvignon Blanc 2019
Capel Vale Regional Series Margaret River Sauvignon Blanc is an elegant and graceful wine. The nose is a complex collection of sweet and savoury aromas ranging from elderflower and fresh cucumber to kiwi fruit and honeydew melon. The crisp and juicy palate offers layered flavours of preserved lemon, tonic water, juniper berry and an almost mineral finish.
100% Sauvignon Blanc. After more than 30 years of research, trial and observation of vine performance in various vineyards, the vines that produce the fruit for this wine were planted where the optimal expression of its variety could be achieved. The vines grow in Capel Vale's Schoar Vineyard in the heart of the Wilyabrup sub region of Margaret River. The soil consists of laterite gravel over sandy loam, overlying areas of granitic loamy soil that rise to the surface in the high ground. The incredible climate, clean environment, ancient soils, fresh air, and wild oceans on three sides culminate in a stable predictable Mediterranean maritime climate perfect for growing grapes.
