Kumusha Sondagskloof Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant white wine from South Africa’s Cape South Coast, sourced from handpicked grapes in the elevated Sondagskloof region. It is known for its clean citrus-lime character balanced by orchard fruit and coastal freshness — with minerality and texture that unfold with each sip.
A natural companion for seafood, sushi, and lighter fare. A step up in texture from the standard Kumusha Sauvignon Blanc, reflecting the specific character of the Sondagskloof growing site.
