The Sauvignon Blanc Groenekloof by Neil Ellis is a lively, complex and grape varietal white wine from the South African wine-growing region of Darling. 

In the glass, this wine shimmers in a bright straw yellow with glittering highlights. The fruity bouquet is dominated by tropical fruits - especially passion fruit and pineapple. Fine notes of gooseberries are accompanied by fresh herbs. On the palate, this South African white wine is very elegant with a complex body wrapped in crisp, slightly creamy texture. The finale comes with a pleasant length and a subtly herbal touch. 

Vinification  of Neil Ellis Sauvignon Blanc Groenekloof

After harvesting the Sauvignon Blanc grapes, the harvested goods are immediately taken to Neil Ellis' wine cellar. There, the readings are first fermented in stainless steel tanks. After the fermentation process has been completed, this wine remains on the fine yeast for 3 months in order to develop its fine creamy character.
