Benguela Cove Lighthouse Collection Sauvignon Blanc 75cl

With all the unique characteristics that a cool climate wine offers, Benguela Cove Lighthouse Collection Sauvignon Blanc was designed to appeal to the palate while being more approachable and accessible in its youth. A lighthouse overlooking the vineyards, Bot River lagoon, and Atlantic Ocean was constructed at Benguela Cove as a tribute to the dangerous yet remarkable Walker Bay coast.

Fruit-driven and fresh wines are produced from grapes that are harvested in the cool of the morning from hills that face the ocean to the north and south.
