Wine Range

Clara

In our pursuit to express the true typicity of Sauvignon blanc from our terroir, we isolated 6 of our top-performing vineyards and separated them into single blocks. Ranging from 260 – 300m above sea level, each block displays different traits. During vinification, the blocks are kept separate allowing their unique characteristics to evolve. Each barrel is evaluated individually and only the best are selected to make up the blend of the Clara Sauvignon Blanc.

Wine

WINE RECORD

The wine was made with a minimalistic approach, allowing for a pure expression of our granite soils that form part of our unique terroir. Using only the free run juice, wild fermentation took place in barrel. The wine was aged for 9 months in 50% new French oak barrels. The Clara Sauvignon Blanc is made from a selection of the best 10 barrels from 6 single vineyards, allowing for a limited production of each vintage.

Palette

The palate is textured with well integrated oak and a granite salinity. Creamy and rich with a racy acidity. Flavours from the nose follow through. Crisp clean and fresh, the wine concludes with a lively long finish.
