Klein Constantia Estate Perdeblokke Constantia Sauvignon Blanc 2009 88 Points
Possibly and hopefully last vintage under screw cap! Pale straw with green reflections.
Clean, high intensity when opened but fading quickly in the glass!, showing evolution after 20 minute, steely, decaying asparagus note, peppery, spicy with slight mineral core.
Dry with high acidity, chiseled, sandstone mineral follows through, high alcohol (14% abv) but integrated, intense mid palate, green guava note, textured and crunchy profile
