Flavor Profile
Fire & Foal Sauvignon Blanc pays homage to the beautiful creature that inspired it. Fire was born a carriage horse, but the Conradi family could never put her and her unbridled joy under a harness. Now, an old photo of Fire and her foal sits on in the winery’s tasting room for visitors to view as they enjoy a glass of their Sauvignon.
Many of the wine’s grapes hail from the valley of wine and roses, Robertson—one of South Africa’s best grape growing areas. The Western Cape’s hot and sunny climate results in ripe and healthy grapes that are then fermented ultra-cool to lock in flavor.
This zippy and zingy Sauvignon Blanc leaps from the glass and is filled with vibrant notes of gooseberry, passion fruit and lemon zest. Sip it solo as an aperitif or alongside spiced curry, fresh seafood and more.
After tasting Fire & Foal, you won’t be surprised to learn that it was awarded a gold medal in Gilbert & Gaillard (France’s top wine guide). Judges wrote: “Light yellow. Fruity nose with stone fruit. Tropical and herbaceous fruit on the palate with a well integrated acidity and a tartness on the finish. Uncomplex and easy. Drink through 2025.”
