2022 Organic Sauvignon Blanc, Reyneke
Stellenbosch, Western Cape, South Africa
Glowing pale straw with hints of green, this 2022 Sauvignon Blanc opens with vibrant aromas of fresh lime juice, zest of lemon and crisp green apple, faintly ghosted by Cape gooseberry. The palate continues the citrus wave but with depth, the succulent lime and lemon flavours are layered over subtle litchi pith intrigue, wrapped in a textured finish and lifted by brisk, integrated acidity. A white that feels both refreshing and refined, organic, intentional and effortlessly good.
For when: You’re craving green and clean, but with character.
Pairs with: Lemon-scented grilled prawns, goat’s cheese tartlet or fresh asparagus with hollandaise.
If this wine were: A sun-lit morning in the Cape, cool breeze, no rush.
Producer note: From the biodynamic slopes of Polkadraai Hills in Stellenbosch, Reyneke stands out for its land-first philosophy: organic, vegan-friendly vines, practised with the spirit of minimal intervention. Their 2022 Sauvignon Blanc is 100% varietal, spontaneously fermented, then aged six months on lees in stainless steel and older French oak, showing why ethical farming can deliver serious flavour.

- Tech Stuff
Set amidst the granite slopes of the Polkadraai Hills in Stellenbosch, Reyneke has long been a beacon of organic and biodynamic winemaking. Since converting to full biodynamic certification in the early 2000s, founder Johan Reyneke and his team have committed to “land-sparing, land-caring” viticulture, where biodiversity, soil health and low intervention are as important as quality fruit.
Here, vines flourish in cool sea-breezed altitude and ancient soils, while the winery rethinks every detail, from bottle weight to recycling practices, as part of its sustainable philosophy. The result: wines that bring clarity of place, integrity of process and effortless elegance in the glass.
