DURBANVILLE HILLS 2009 SAUVIGNON BLANC
Durbanville, a hilly region near Cape Town, is buffeted by cooling coastal winds. The terrain helps create sauvignon with green pepper, dill and celery nose, and it has the same verve and greenness on the palate. It’s medium bodied, brittle, tart and intense—it works well with food (especially seafood dishes). LCBO 22251
