Details and technical informations about Winery Lourensford's Five Heirs Sauvignon Blanc.
Discover the grape variety: Humagne blanche
Structured, original whites with a golden robe, ample palate and fresh alpine acidity, showing aromas of yellow fruits (pear, quince), candied citrus, linden, honey, white flowers and mineral notes with a slightly bitter finish. Reputed tonic, once given to new mothers. Discreet star of the Valais hillsides (Sierre, Sion, Conthey). Autochthonous Valais variety, one of Switzerland's oldest (recorded since the 14th century), with no link to humagne rouge.

Showcase of the South African vineyard: signature Cabernet Sauvignon as king red — structured and age-worthy with notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, tobacco and a menthol touch, firm tannins. Emblematic national Pinotage (created 1925) opulent and smoky (blackberry, coffee, leather). Fleshy Shiraz, supple Merlot as complement. Vibrant Chenin Blanc, ample Chardonnay and lively Sauvignon in whites.

Cradle of South African wine. Signature Chenin Blanc (Steen, 20%) in ample, fresh whites with notes of quince, yellow apple, honey and acacia flower, from crisp dry to sweet. Sharp, iodised Sauvignon Blanc (Walker Bay, Constantia), balanced Chardonnay. Reds: emblematic Pinotage with roasted aromas (coffee, plum, smoke), firm Cabernet Sauvignon, spicy Syrah.
