Fryer's Cove - Doring Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Doring Bay is the home location for the Fryer’s Cove Winery. The actual winery is perched on the jetty that juts into the cold South Atlantic Ocean.

The unique winery building is an old Crayfish factory, and our winery, as far as we know is the only winery built on the sea in the world!

The season started of with some weather fluctuations which influenced bud break and flowering and causing less and uneven loose bunches with small berries.

Despite the challenges and recovering from the severe drought the wines shows good acidity levels and very nice flavour profiles. Phenolic ripeness occurred at lower sugar levels resulting in lower alcohol wines.

This Sauvignon Blanc must shout at you! “Fresh, Crisp, Steely, Grassy, Ripe, Tangy, Tropical Fruit – Please enjoy me now!” We think it does!

With all the hallmarks of our unique west coast style of cool climate Sauvignon Blanc coming from the sea mists off the ice cold, South Atlantic Ocean.
