Uva Mira - The Mira Sauvignon Blanc 2023

The Mira Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 from high-lying Helderberg property Uva Mira presents as extraordinarily youthful, testament once again to what an extraordinary vintage this was.

Sauvignon Blanc vines are planted on the highest vineyards on the Estate, on the slopes of the Helderberg Mountain range, facing False Bay. The early morning breezes cool the vines, which contributes to the superb natural acidity in the grapes. Decomposed granite soils contribute to the minerality of the palate.

Tropical opulence on the nose showcasing passion fruit, kiwi and a twist of lime with subtle blackcurrant lift complemented by whispers of fynbos and lemongrass. The palate shows a dense, well-balanced structure with lovely texture. Tropical edginess of papaya and passion fruit make way for some herbal notes and a delectable, dry, blackcurrant finish.
