Tasting Notes

A great guava explosion on the nose introduces this wine te your senses. Some grassy flavours from Sauvignon Blanc leave the taste buds longing for more with a zesty lime, rather than a tropical finish. Enjoy next to the pool, with a light brunch, or as a nice sun downer.

In The Vineyard

The recent domacration of the darling district has led to a focus aaat Darling Cellars on wines witch are terrior and varietal specific. The cool and temperate West coast climate lends itself to a different micro- and mesoclimate which, along with the different types of soil, lead to unique grapes, which we guide into eve more uniwue wines.
