External Reviews for Iona Sauvignon Blanc Elgin
Pale silver. Musky aromas of lemon peel, crushed stone, quinine and wintermint. Juicy, bracing and intense; has a tactile texture but remains light and brisk. Finishes with a dusty whiplash of grapefruit rind. Very concentrated, sharply delineated sauvignon mdash; one of the best examples I tasted this year from South Africa.
A stellar example of what cool-climate South African vineyards can produce, this crisp, minerally Sauvignon Blanc is steely and clean in the true Sauvignon style. Tropical fruit flavors are subtle but delicious, and the finish is lingering and impressive. At this price, you canrsquo;t get much better, whether yoursquo;re looking for a solo sip or a food-friendly cohort.
