'World Class Sauvignon' from Durbanville

Neil Pendock reports in his article Superb Sauvignon From The Pumpkin Patch of a recent tasting tour of Durbanville. Pendock concludes on visiting Durbanville 'you can’t help falling over world class Sauvignon.'

Backsberg shares this view and it is for this reason we have established a satellite vineyard at Altydgedacht. My dad has had a longstanding friendship with the Parkers of Altydgedacht and this lead to the development of a south sloping block of Sauvignon Blanc on their farm.

The micro climate of Durbanville with its coastal influence leads to fruit with incredible intensity and flavour.

Much of the fruit from the satellite vineyard goes into our Black Label range Sauvignon Blanc John Martin.

Have a good week.
