Description

The Klein Constantia Metis Pascal Jolivet Sauvignon Blanc is a unique collaboration between the renowned Klein Constantia winery in South Africa and famed French winemaker Pascal Jolivet, known for his expertise with Sauvignon Blanc in the Loire Valley. This exceptional wine blends the terroir-driven style of Klein Constantia with the elegant, crisp, and aromatic style that Pascal Jolivet brings to his Sauvignon Blanc wines. The result is a distinctive Sauvignon Blanc with a vibrant expression of fruit, minerality, and balance. The grapes are carefully selected from vineyards located in the cool-climate region of Constantia, ensuring the wine maintains its freshness and complexity.

Tasting Notes

COLOR:
The wine has a pale, luminous yellow hue, with bright clarity and a slight greenish tint, indicating its youthfulness.

NOSE:
On the nose, there is a harmonious mix of fresh citrus fruits like grapefruit, lime, and lemon zest, with an undertone of ripe gooseberries and passion fruit. Subtle notes of flinty minerality and herbaceous hints of freshly cut grass and green pepper add complexity.

TASTE:
The palate is crisp and vibrant, with lively acidity that cuts through the richness of the wine. It offers layers of citrus and tropical fruit flavors, including green apple, lime, and white peach. The mid-palate is balanced with a touch of minerality and delicate herbaceous nuances. The finish is long, with a refreshing crispness that leaves a clean and invigorating aftertaste.

Food Pairing

Klein Constantia Metis Pascal Jolivet Sauvignon Blanc is a versatile wine that pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes, especially those that highlight freshness and acidity. Ideal pairings include:

Fresh seafood such as oysters, crab, or grilled lobster.
Light salads with citrus, goat cheese, and avocado.
Grilled fish like sea bass, snapper, or mackerel.
