Swartland Winery Founders Sauvignon Blanc is a 100% Sauvignon Blanc from the Western Cape wine region of South Africa. Made by Swartland Winery, this white wine is crafted to express fresh fruit, lively acidity, and varietal clarity. It is fermented at cool temperatures to preserve aroma, and finished in stainless steel to retain bright, clean fruit characters. The style is straightforward, fresh, and ideal for immediate enjoyment rather than long aging.
