NEDERBURG

THE YOUNG AIRHAWK

Can age for 5 -7 years, excellent wine to store away!

Fantastic Wooded Sauvignon Blanc - Premium Wine

One of four Nederburg premium wines made to honour previous employees this 2011 Young Airhawk is a wooded Sauvignon Blanc that pays tribute to Johann Graue's son, Arnold, who, like his father, introduced many technical innovations to the winery and enhanced his father's award-winning reputation before his tragic death at 29 in a light aircraft crash. Current cellarmaster Razvan Macici describes it as: "Layers of green figs, asparagus and minerality on the nose and palate integrated very well with the wood. It's fresh, crisp and zesty with a creamy texture." And he's not wrong. A terrific wine.
 
The 2011 Young Airhawk is a wooded Sauvignon blanc that pays tribute to Johann Graue’s son, Arnold, who, like his father, introduced many technical innovations to Nederburg and enhanced his father’s award-winning reputation. He died at 29 in a light aircraft crash.
 
The grapes for this wooded Sauvignon blanc were sourced from vineyards near Gansbaai, Darling and Durbanville, each offering different facets of the varietal’s character. Grapes were destemmed and the juice fermented in a combination of second- and third-fill small oak, using 228 litre and 300 litre barrels. Fermentation temperatures were monitored in each barrel, with the wine kept on the lees for 10 months, stirred regularly to add creaminess and complexity.
 
 “Layers of green figs, asparagus and minerality on the nose and palate integrate very well with the wood. It’s fresh, crisp and zesty with a creamy texture and can age for five to seven years,” says Macici.
