Tasting Notes:
The 2017 Paul Wallace Little Flirt Sauvignon Blanc is our fifth vintage. As
the name suggests she is little charmer and somewhat flirtatious.
Bright and appealing with prominent gooseberry, pear, and golden delicious
apple on the nose. An explosion of fruit on the palate reveals a medley of
tropical fruits, fennel and some grapefruit coupled with a prominent mineral
core. The full mouthfeel captures the purity of Elgin’s fruit, resulting in
a well-balanced wine with good length. Delightful young but is expected to
show her pedigree and mature with stylish grace and aplomb with further time
in the bottle.
Guaranteed to charm and
captivate, she will pair beautifully with summer salads, fresh Cape
crayfish, and all manner of seafood. Match her with mussels, seared
tuna, kingklip or salmon. The Little Flirt will compliment roast
chicken or pork chops and apple sauce. For dessert serve her with
apple crumble. She will certainly enhance your meal and even if
sipped as an aperitif will flirt with your senses!
