Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc

Hamilton Russell 's Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc is a precise, expressive white wine from the cool, maritime Hemel-en-Aarde Valley in Walker Bay – just 3 km from the cool South Atlantic Ocean, where the rare Southern Right whales come ashore each year. Grown on Table Mountain sandstone, clay-rich slate, and granite soils, the Sauvignon Blanc develops its distinctive minerality and fresh precision.

In the glass, it displays a bright straw yellow with greenish reflections. The nose opens with vibrant aromas of passion fruit, gooseberry, guava, citrus, and green fig , accompanied by delicate herbal notes, elderflower, and a hint of salty sea breeze. On the palate, it is racy, juicy, and invigoratingly fresh, with crisp acidity, an elegant smoothness, and a long, mineral-fruity finish.

100% Sauvignon Blanc , predominantly aged in stainless steel tanks, 13.5% ABV, served at 8–10°C . Ideal with fish, seafood, goat cheese, and fresh summer cuisine – a Sauvignon Blanc that masterfully blends Old and New World influences.

The Winery

Hamilton Russell Vineyards

Hamilton Russell Vineyards is located in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley – a cool, sea-near valley behind the old fishing village of Hermanus, in the far south of Africa. Hardly any winery on the continent is located so far south. Here, the Hamilton Russell family has done pioneering work: they showed that South Africa can produce Pinot Noir and Chardonnay at a world-class level.

Cooling sea breezes from the Atlantic, nutrient-poor soils, and a lot of patience – that is the recipe. The result? Wines with depth and individual character that do not deny their origin.

One sip, and you know: This comes from here, from no other place in the world. The wines taste lively and precise – fresh red fruits, a bit of earth, a salty hint of the sea. Nothing too much, nothing too little. Simply harmonious.
