Survivor Terroir Sauvignon Blanc 2024
Sauvignon Blanc
Description
The Survivor Terroir Sauvignon Blanc 2024 forms part of a range dedicated to expressing specific vineyard sites across South Africa. For this wine, the focus is on Darling - a coastal-influenced region where cool sea breezes and morning fog help preserve acidity and aromatic intensity, giving Sauvignon Blanc its characteristic freshness and lift.
Originally developed under Overhex Wines, the Survivor brand entered a new chapter in 2024 when it was acquired by Van Loveren Family Vineyards. This transition brings greater vineyard access and production scale, while maintaining the terroir-driven philosophy that defines the range.
Winemaker Pierre Wahl continues to guide the style, focusing on clarity of fruit and regional expression. The winemaking approach is typically reductive and stainless steel-driven, preserving aromatics and ensuring a crisp, clean profile that reflects the cool-climate origin.
Colour:
Pale straw with a bright green edge, indicating youth and freshness.
Nose:
Gooseberry and ruby grapefruit lead, followed by passion fruit and white pear. Subtle herbal notes and a hint of white blossom add lift and complexity.
Palate:
Light to medium-bodied with vibrant, mouth-watering acidity. Citrus and tropical fruit flavours carry through clearly, supported by a clean, linear structure and a lightly rounded texture from the blend.
Finish:
Fresh and persistent, with lingering grapefruit, citrus zest, and a crisp mineral edge.

- Food Pairing : Survivor Terroir Sauvignon Blanc 2024 is a natural match for fresh, flavour-driven dishes. It pairs well with grilled or pan-fried white fish, sushi, or prawns, where the acidity enhances the natural sweetness of the seafood. Salads with goat’s cheese or green vegetables echo the wine’s herbaceous notes, while lightly spiced dishes such as Thai or Vietnamese-style food work well thanks to its freshness and citrus profile. It’s a versatile choice for lighter meals, especially in warm weather.
