Lomond Ben Nevis 7 Rows Sauvignon Blanc 2022
Sauvignon Blanc
Description
Lomond Wine Estate sits on the windswept Agulhas Plain in one of the coolest grape-growing corners of South Africa. Its vineyards, planted strategically across varied soils and elevated sites, benefit from consistent maritime influence and slow, even ripening - ideal conditions for aromatic whites like Sauvignon Blanc.
The “7 Rows” designation refers to a specific vineyard block that consistently delivers expressive fruit with pronounced clarity. Rather than leaning on heavy oak or overprocessing, the team at Lomond focuses on gentle handling from vine to bottle: early morning picking, cool fermentation and minimal intervention help preserve varietal purity and energy. The result is a Sauvignon Blanc that feels both refined and vivid - a wine rooted in place with bright fruit and structure.
Colour:
Pale straw with a hint of green; lively and youthful in the glass.
Nose:
Fresh aromatics of passion fruit, lime zest and green fig combine with subtle grassy and mineral hints that speak to the cool Cape Agulhas climate.
Palate:
Crisp and dry, the palate delivers vibrant citrus and tropical fruit flavours balanced by a racy acidity that adds focus and tension. There’s a touch of herbaceousness that enhances complexity without feeling overt.
Finish:
Clean and refreshing, with a lingering citrus edge and a mineral thread that keeps the finish crisp and inviting.

Lomond Ben Nevis 7 Rows Sauvignon Blanc 2022
- Food Pairing : Lomond Ben Nevis 7 Rows Sauvignon Blanc 2022 pairs beautifully with light, fresh cuisine that mirrors its bright acidity and fruit-driven profile. Think grilled line fish or lemon-dressed calamari - the citrus and tropical notes of the wine elevate seafood sweetness and lift the palate between bites. A green salad with goat’s cheese, herbs and a zesty vinaigrette also works wonderfully, where the wine’s acidity cuts through creaminess while echoing fresh fruit. For something with a touch of spice, peri-peri prawns or herb-roasted chicken skewers bring out the wine’s lively character without overpowering it.
- Drink before: Enjoy within 3–4 years of vintage to retain fresh aromatics and lively acidity.
