Sadie Family Blitsem Witblits 2019 750ml

The Sadie Family Blitsem Witblits 2019 is an extremely rare, refined take on South Africa’s traditional “White Lightning” spirit. Witblits is a clear, unaged brandy distilled from fermented fruit. This bottling is made specifically from 100% old-vine Hanepoot (Muscat de Alexandria) grapes. Legendary winemaker Eben Sadie meticulously crafts this spirit. It represents a pure, unadulterated expression of the grape’s character.

• Sadie Family Wines was named World’s Best Rising Star at the Golden Vines Awards (multiple times).
• Eben Sadie received the prestigious Winemakers’ Winemaker Award from the Institute of Masters of Wine.
• His wine, Skurfberg Chenin Blanc, achieved a perfect 100 points from Tim Atkin MW.

Sadie Family Blitsem Witblits 2019 is powerful and pure. It offers an incredible concentration of aromatic grape notes. Expect vibrant aromas of white cassis and hints of green apple skin. The palate delivers an explosion of fragrant grape spirit. It features salty, mineral, and subtle lime undertones. Its very high proof demands respect and slow sipping. Unlike many brandies, it is only single-distilled in copper pot stills. This preserves the intense, fresh fruit character of the vintage.
