Rather characterless for for the price.

2 stars

There are plenty of good medium-price Sauvignons around. Unfortunately, this isn't one of them! It isn't awful but neither is it as good as it should be at the price. You can just about identify the grape but the wine lacks substance and character.

good value!

Awful

Awful wine, no sauvignon characteristics, tasted bland and dull

Superb wine for warm evenings

Review from tesco.com

First Cape Sauvignon Blanc Special Cuvee is a beautiful mellow wine which when chilled is good for drinking with Sea Bass or Sea Bream. It will enhance the flavours of shellfish and is perfect to be drunk with Thai or Vietnamese dishes. It is also excellent as a social wine to be sipped on warm evening with friends. Try it with fresh strawberries or raspberries a tasty substitute to a glass of Pimms.

Quite moreish

I didn't really care for this wine, it has no body and very little taste. Just a bit weak wet and watery. Will not buy it again no matter how cheap it is.

Review from tesco.com

Bought this wine on offer at half price but was disappointed as in the past had always bought New Zealand Sauvignon blanc and was hoping this would compare as in the same original price range. Not as crisp or flavorful.
