Neethlingshof Sauvignon Blanc



Spring Sauvignon Blanc Festival The Pivot Courtyard Southern Sun Montecasino
Neethlingshof Sauvignon Blanc exhibits tropical fruit and green figs are backed by a hint of green pepper asparagus and grass, crisp and refreshing with prominent tropical fruit and green fig flavours that linger long after the last sip.


The Neethlingshof estate in Stellenbosch takes its name from its 19th century owner, Marthinus Laurentius Neethling, who served as mayor of Stellenbosch and was also a member of the Cape Parliament.


A member of the Biodiversity & Wine Initiative, acknowledged for its protection of indigenous habitat, the 378 ha winery has set aside 127 ha for conservation. It cultivates both red and white varietals, with the bias marginally in favour of whites.
