Young Airhawk Sauvignon Blanc soars to new heights
The Young Airhawk Sauvignon Blanc 2013 has reached new heights with a listing on the 2014 FNB Sauvignon Blanc Top 10 wines. It forms part of Nederburg's gourmet Heritage Heroes collection and has been named to honour young Arnold Graue, a talented young winemaker, who died in a light airplane crash.
What makes it so appealing, says cellar master Razvan Macici is the zesty freshness, multifaceted and creamy taste and its compatibility with food. This is the second accolade earned this month by the wooded Sauvignon Blanc. Just a few weeks ago, it landed a double gold at Veritas. It is available from specialty stockists and the farm at a retail price of R115 a bottle. For more information, go to www.nederburg.co.za.
