Rustenberg Western Cape Ida's White 2011 82 Points



Pale straw with yellow reflections.

Clean, medium plus intensity, ripe guava, tropical fruit, citrus, white peaches, jasmine, good purity, stony minerals.

Dry with some residual sugar, nevertheless crisp, juicy, almost savoury, tangy, quite intense mid palate, structured, fresh and elegant, perfect moderate alcohol (13%).

Perfect this spring and summer as a casual aperitif to be enjoyed with friends!

Sauvignon Blanc base blend with Chardonnay and Viognier.
