{"product_id":"strandveld-pofadderbos-sauvignon-blanc-2024","title":"Strandveld Pofadderbos Sauvignon Blanc 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eStrandveld Vineyards sits among the rugged coastal plains near Cape Agulhas and Elim, where Atlantic winds, maritime fog and rocky soils define a truly distinctive cool-climate terroir. The name Pofadderbos (“puff adder bush”) comes from the local sightings of these iconic snakes in the vineyard, but in the bottle it speaks to something far more inviting: terroir-driven Sauvignon Blanc that’s expressive, richly textured and unmistakably South African. Cellar Master Conrad Vlok draws on decades of experience and careful viticulture to craft this wine with minimal intervention - fermented cool in stainless steel and often given time on lees to add palate weight without obscuring the varietal’s freshness. This single-vineyard wine exemplifies Strandveld’s philosophy of letting place lead, with the ocean-influenced winds and cool ripening shaping character that’s both pure and compelling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2202\" data-end=\"2298\"\u003eColour: Pale straw with bright, youthful hints of green - clean and inviting in the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2202\" data-end=\"2298\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2300\" data-end=\"2569\"\u003eNose: Pronounced aromas of passionfruit, grapefruit and citrus, layered with subtle blackcurrant leaf and fynbos herb complexity that signal Elim’s cool maritime influence. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2300\" data-end=\"2569\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2571\" data-end=\"2963\"\u003ePalate: Creamy yet crisp, the palate delivers lively citrus and tropical fruit framed by oyster shell minerality and vibrant natural acidity.
