Sauvignon Blanc Wine Grape Vine for Sale

Sauvignon Blanc is one of the most popular white wine varieties in the world, believed to be a descendant of the ancient Traminer family, grown since the 18th century in the Bordeaux and Loire Valleys of France. Small to medium-sized, short oval-shaped berries, greenish-yellow in colour when ripe. The skin is thin, soft and juicy with a distinctive crisp, sweet-tart, grassy to herbaceous taste. Seeded.

Ripens from mid-February, depending on weather conditions.

Climbing vine. South Africa's Western Cape produces world-class Sauvignon Blanc. Performs well across a range of South African wine regions.

Like all wine grape varieties, Sauvignon Blanc rewards consistent pruning. An annual hard winter prune is the single most important step in keeping the vine productive, managing vigour, and improving fruit quality year on year. Without it, the vine will become increasingly unmanageable and fruit quality will decline.

Grapevines are long-lived, drought-tolerant once established, and surprisingly low-maintenance in the right position. Plant in full sun, in well-drained soil, with a solid trellis or support structure in place — and a well-sited vine will reward you for decades.
