Story
Buitenverwachting translates from Afrikaans to “Beyond Expectations”. A term that is met with its exceptional wines. Rooted in deep, decomposed granite soils and cooled by the temperate sea breezes from the surrounding oceans, Buitenverwachting wines are an expression of this unique climate.
Tasting Notes
For this full-bodied Sauvignon Blanc blend with its vibrant notes of ripe gooseberry, green peppers, green melon, and tropical fruit, I recommend pairing it with the aria "Je veux vivre" from Gounod’s Roméo et Juliette. This aria is light, effervescent, and full of youthful exuberance, perfectly complementing the wine's lively fruit character and complex layers. The bright and joyful nature of the aria mirrors the wine's fresh and dynamic flavours, making it an ideal pairing for an uplifting and vibrant tasting experience.
Food Pairing
Savor the elegance of this wine alongside fresh salmon or seared tuna. Also matched well with shellfish like buttery lobster or tender scallops. For a delightful contrast, enjoy it with asparagus and vibrant vegetarian dishes.
Wine Makers Note
After approximately twelve hours’ skin contact, fermentation with a selection of five yeast strains at 16°C lasted for three weeks.
Delivery 3-7 working days
