Description
The Lomond Estate SSV is a delicious blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Viognier that is wonderfully refreshing and elegant. The nose boasts aromas of gooseberry and tropical fruit which follow through to a layered palate with citrus and hints of spice. This is a beautifully balanced blend with each grape variety evident yet perfectly knit. Zesty and fresh with a mouthwatering finish, this is a wonderful alternative to the fabulous Chenin Blanc led blends from South Africa.
The estate is located in the Cape Agulhas appellation of origin, at the latitude 34° 34´ south. Altitudes vary, with some blocks at 50 metres above sea level, while others are located around 100 metres’ elevation, with an unhindered exposure to the sea. Even the lowest-lying vineyards still benefit from the cool maritime winds. This maritime climate
with the fresh sea breezes, ensures that the vineyards are kept cool which results in late ripening, intense fruit with complex flavours and natural balancing acidity. Lomond’s geological formations are unique; the soils are mostly of sandstone and shale origins with the intrusion of granite in sections creating lean, gravelly soils. This marked diversity
of soil types, combined with the valley location creates distinctively fresh wines. The grapes are hand-harvested in the cool, early hours of the morning.
