Ataraxia | Sauvignon Blanc | 2022
The Ataraxia Sauvignon Blanc is a cool climate, alchemy-free, unwooded white wine highlighting the free-draining sandstone soils on which it is planted. An exceptional growing season in 2022 led to a slightly early picking, with small berries and concentrated fruit aromas and flavours. 13.3% Alcohol.
Nose & Palate
White stone fruits, citrus, and lemongrass, with a robust acidity and delightful texture.
Pairing
A chicken sandwich, seafood pasta, or by itself for a blanket picnic.
About the Winery - ATARAXIA
Hemel-en-Aarde is Afrikaans for “heaven and earth” and the claim is justified. The estate sits on a particularly heavenly stretch of land beneath a lofty peak of the Babylon’s Tower mountain range. In addition to its unrelenting beauty, Ataraxia is home to some of the most spectacular terroirs South Africa has to offer.
In 2004, The Skyfields Farm was visioned into the Ataraxia wine label when husband and wife, Kevin and Hanli Grant and a few friends purchased this 47-hectare prime vineyard property.
Almost two decades on, we are associated with crafting wines of incredible finesse, balance and depth; wines that proudly hold their own on the international wine stage.
