Klein Constantia Estate Sauvignon Blanc
Bright and light in appearance, aromas of citrus and stonefruit fill the nose. The palate is richly textured, fresh and complex with a bold minerality - a pure expression of Sauvignon Blanc. The wine concludes with a long crisp flinty finish.

Klein Constantia Metis Sauvignon Blanc
The name Metis refers to the collaboration between Klein Constantia and Pascal Jolivet of Sancerre and the latter's holistic, minimal approach to winemaking. This fusion of philosophies is reflected in the flower on the label, that is a hybrid of the South African Protea and French Iris. A Sauvignon Blanc that reflects a true expression of terrior, rather than technique. Fermentation was wild and the wine was left to mature on the lees for a period of 12 months.
