Warwick Professor Black Sauvignon Blanc

The Warwick Professor Black Sauvignon Blanc is a white wine aged in stainless steel tanks. The grapes come from two different plots located on the heights of the Simonsberg in Stellenbosch. One was planted in 1985, the other in 2003. The diverse harvest adds complexity, different flavors and structure to the wine. The grapes are harvested by hand in the early morning and immediately transported to the cellar. Before pressing, the mash remains on the skins for 6-12 hours. Then the aromatic Sauvignon Blanc is fermented cold in stainless steel tanks. The 100 days of aging on the fine lees gives the Sauvignon melt.

Produced in limited quantities, the Warwick Professor Black Sauvignon Blanc displays typical aromas of elderflower, nettle, passion fruit and lime. Lively and zesty on the palate with an abundance of passion fruit and lemon with a fresh lingering acidity.

The name is a tribute to "Professor Black", a researcher who grew South Africa's first peaches on Simonsberg.

Enjoy this wonderful wine simply solo or serve it with fresh oysters, salad with goat cheese or grilled trout.

Delaire Graff Coastal Cuvee Sauvignon Blanc
This Sauvignon Blanc is a blend consisting of grapes that come from the wine-growing regions of Durbanville, Stellenbosch, Darling and Franschhoek. This white wine from South Africa has a wonderfully enticing bouquet offering notes of tropical fruit, underpinned by nuances of black currants and gooseberries. On the palate, the Declaire Graff Coastal Cuvee Sauvignon Blanc is balanced and beautifully multi-layered. This cuvée also includes small percentages of Semillon which was aged in French wooden casks, giving this assemblage its complexity. The Sauvignon Blanc, wonderfully uniting all the advantages of its cultivation areas, has a fresh, crisp acidity and a long finish. South Africa’s wine expert John Platter awards this white wine 4.5 out of 5 possible stars.

Warwick Professor Black Pitch Black
The Professor Black Pitch Black produced by the South African Warwick winery unites the famous Bordeaux grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Malbec with the Cinsault grape variety that is very common in South Africa. This combination might seem unusual, but it creates a very special red wine. The Cinsault grapes give this wine a pungent freshness and vividness. The Warwick Professor Black Pitch Black has an enticing bouquet hinting of currants, paprika, vanilla and fresh cedar. On the palate, it offers expressive earthy aromas and notes of various spices. Due to the 18 months of ageing in French oak casks, the wine shows lots of extract and depth. Its fruity aromas of plums and raspberries are impressive, while the finish is extremely concentrated and long-lasting. The Professor Black Pitch Black can already be enjoyed now if you give it some time to breathe before you drink it. However, it will be a real delight over the next ten years as well.The wine is an excellent accompaniment to a classic pork roast, roast leg of lamb or a juicy steak.

Warwick Trilogy
The wine displays an intense ruby red colour in the glass. The bouquet is reminiscence of cherries, blackcurrants and has tones of dark chocolate. The pallet is full bodied with firm but silky tannins. Decanting is recommended to express the true essence of this Bordeaux blend. This wine pairs good with veal, game, and intensely flavoured stews or serve with a bitter chocolate desert.
