Cape Point Vineyards Isliedh 2022

Characteristics:
4,5-star rating in John Platters 2024 Wine Guide: 'A Cape Classic from a single block, with 10 maximum 5-star ratings since 2003 debut. 74% sauvignon fermented in oak, semillon in clay then moved to older barrels. On lees a year. Fascinating aromas, with exotic & spicily perfumed elements adding to complexity. Creamy texture, lemony minerality; lingering finish testifies to fruit concentration. A long life ahead.'

Food pairing:
Try with Asian food, also stir-fried sweet and sour fish and poultry or with spicy cheeses.
