Pale straw in colour with deep golden hues. The bouquet is fresh – think salty sea breeze with citrus zest and lemon blossom, later it becomes more core tropical fruit – yellow stone fruit which translates as papaya, green melon, pear and some quince. The oak is there, but very circumspectly, moulding into the mélange. The palate has a driving force with the crisp acidity and freshness that it brings, but on the palate is where the fruit comes to the fore. Its luscious and enveloping texture, brings you to the realization of the complex nature with such apparent ease, persistent on the finish.

Founded in 1989, Mulderbosch quickly captured the attention and respect of the wine world with their racy Sauvignon Blanc, helping to create a reputation for South Africa as a source of world-class wines. Widely recognized as one of South Africa’s finest producers, Mulderbosch has attained great critical and commercial success, crafting an award-winning range of wines that consistently earn top ratings and Wine Spectator “Smart Buy” and “Outstanding Value” accolades. The brand’s distinctive labels were designed by former cellar master Mike Dobrovic, who found inspiration in a Cuban cigar band. It was in this earth that one of the Cape’s most successful partnerships turned Mulderbosch around. Winemaker Mike Dobrovic, better known as Mr. Sauvignon Blanc SA, joined Larry and together they cleaned up the property and planted the first vineyards. Little did they know that the wines that they would produce would attract glowing accolades and a clutch of awards. Mulderbosch, situated in the Stellenbosch Hills area outside Stellenbosch, is widely accepted as being one of the best wine producers in the country. We are committed to conserve our unique natural heritage, landscape and natural biodiversity by implementing environmentally responsible management practices on the land and in the cellar.
