Description
Neil Ellis West Coast Sauvignon Blanc 2022
Neil Ellis is a South African wine industry icon and one of the early pioneers to bring quality levels up to world class standards. The winery sits 5 miles east of the town of Stellenbosch in the Jonkershoek Valley. It was founded in 1993 with the philosophy to source grapes from the top growers of the region. The eco-friendly winery produces wines from the regions of Stellenbosch, Darling, Darbanville and Elgin.
Dining on the West Coast is usually a barefoot, feel-the-sand-between-your-toes type of occasion. The region has a cool climate but warm, inviting people who love to entertain. A moody morning mist leaves the most delicate imprint of salinity on the grapes. Slow, gentle ripening creates an ideal balance between fruit flavors and freshness.
Fresh fish or shellfish on the braai sings in the company of this wine. The bright acidity and ripe fruit flavors complement crunchy summer salads and cheesy vegetable dishes.
