Tasting Notes:
The 2018 Paul Wallace Little Flirt Sauvignon Blanc is our sixth vintage. As the name suggests she is little charmer and somewhat flirtatious.
Bright and appealing with prominent golden delicious apple, gooseberry, pear and kiwi fruit 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 fresh well-balanced wine with good length. Delightful while 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 oysters, mussels, seared tuna, kingklip or salmon. The Little Flirt will compliment roast chicken or pork chops with 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!
Released for sale September 2018.
