Wine: The Beach House

Region: Western Cape
Country: South Africa

Year: 2012
Grape: Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon
Supplier: The Wine Warehouse

Notes:
Light yellow with a light green touch in colour and a rather soft aromatic nose bringing lots of lemons and lemongrass.
Soft and beautiful palate, bringing lemons and a hint of honey, with a decent length and next to no acidity. The Semillon addition partly kills the overpowering aromas of sauvignon blanc, making this a soft, easy to drink wine.
