2017 Fleurfontein, Keermont

This expressive, sweet Sauvignon Blanc is named "flower fountain", after a beautiful spring on the farm near the vineyard, and it's made using a very special technique. The team pinches the stem of the grape bunches while they ripen on the vine, halting the movement of water in and out of the grapes, so they dry throughout the summer. The raisins are harvested, and thick juice pressed before fermentation with natural yeasts and then maturation for 18 months. With 268 grams/litre of residual sugar, it's so concentrated and luscious, and delicious. Just 3,500 bottles made.
