La Vierge Collection Original Sin Sauvignon Blanc 2010 84 Points



2010 vintage was a blend of 91% Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge and 9% Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, showing a pale straw with yellow reflections.

Clean, medium plus intensity, ripe gooseberry, green kiwi and passion fruit, flinty minerals.

Dry with moderate acidity, fresh, broad and creamy texture with some leesy complexity, salty minerals follows through, good purity, elegant, fairly long and persistent. Drink now until 2018.
