Drink it now or cellar for up to 5 years. No need to decant. Located in the Elgin valley, nestled among the ancient Hottentots Holland sandstone mountains, along the southern coast of the Cape, Catherine Marshall Wines is a small South African winery founded in the late 1990s and now renowned for its excellent, award-winning, cool-climate wines. Founder Catherine Marshall graduated with a degree in oenology from Stellenbosch and gained experience around the world before dedicating herself to her small production in the Elgin wine region. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are hand-picked from vineyards located in the cool Elgin Valley. After harvest, fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature, and the finished wine rests on the lees for six months before blending and adding a small percentage of barrel-aged Semillon. The result is a fresh and expressive wine with a broad and lively aromatic profile revealing notes of lychee and lime sorbet, passion fruit, melon, and pink grapefruit. On the palate, it is juicy and vibrant, fruit-forward and crisp. It has a well-balanced tropical richness and a refreshing citrus acidity. The finish is fresh and zesty, with a touch of elegance. It pairs perfectly with sushi, seafood tacos, spaghetti with clams, and goat cheese salad.
