Jamie Goode reviews our Sauvignon Blanc

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011

Leading UK wine writer Jamie Goode has tasted and reviewed our 2010 Sauvignon Blanc. It is really heartening for us to get such a magical review for our first ever wine, especially considering that the wine is from such young grapes.  http://www.wineanorak.com/wineblog/sauvignon-blanc/seven-springs-an-interesting-new-south-african-sauvignon

So far tastings of our Sauvignon Blanc 2010 have received a big ‘thumbs up’. A big thanks to Fiona Phillips from Cybercellar in Franschhoek, Western Cape, (http://www.cybercellar.com) for saying she will sell our wines from day 1 and also helping us import our wines into the UK.

Seven Springs Vineyard bottles Sauvignon Blanc

Saturday, August 7th, 2010

Our first wine

Friday the 6th of August 2010 is a momentous day in the history of Seven Springs Vineyard as it was the day we bottled our first ever wines, our 2010 Sauvignon Blanc. A total of 4,300 bottles of the wine were bottled at Iona Vineyards, www.iona.co.za, in Elgin. Our wines will spend a couple of weeks recovering from ‘bottle shock’, then be labelled and made available for sale within South Africa and the UK.
