Profile & Story

Whale Route is a brand-owned South African label, no named estate, sourced from the Breede River Valley in the Western Cape, grown on marly, stony soils; the fruit is harvested at low temperature with light crushing and a short 8-hour skin maceration, then cold-fermented in stainless steel, unoaked. Note: this describes the standard bottling, as no distinct Grand Reserve product page exists from the importer.

Tasting Notes

A classic expression of Sauvignon Blanc suited to South Africa's growing conditions, showing a refined bouquet of lime and orange with delicate melon, fig and peach notes.

Pairing Recommendation

Ideal as an aperitif or with salads and light fare.
