An Outlier is a scientific term for anything that's just a little bit different. In other words, something out of the ordinary. And that's precisely what the winemakers at Jordan like to call this wine. It's a special Sauvignon Blanc, if only because it's partially aged in oak, which isn't often seen. Both old and new oak barrels are used. This results in a fresh Sauvignon Blanc with light smoky notes.

Special vinification for Jordan The Outlier Sauvignon Blanc

The vineyards of the Jordan Winery extend from the Stellenbosch Kloof to the slopes of the Bottelary Hills. These beautiful rolling hills offer stunning views of Cape Town, Table Mountain, and False Bay. The winery was purchased in 1982 by father Ted and son Gary Jordan. They began their adventure with soil and climate research, which allowed them to determine precisely which grape variety to plant on which slope. They achieved a beautiful balance between ripe, concentrated, and fruity wines. Today, Gary and Kathy are at the helm of this family business. They benefit from beautiful old vineyards and produce high-quality wines. The Sauvignon Blanc is harvested early in the morning, at cool temperatures, to preserve the grapes' freshness. At the winery, the grapes are left to skin contact for 6 to 10 hours before being gently pressed. The juice ferments in French oak barrels, both old and new. The wine spends 8 months on lees. Almost half of the blend consists of tank-fermented Sauvignon Blanc, creating a unique taste experience.

A characterful Sauvignon Blanc from Jordan

As you might expect from a Sauvignon Blanc, The Outlier emerges with a beautiful straw-yellow color in the glass. It's a wine with character. Full-bodied, ripe, and deliciously fruity. The aroma reveals aromas of tropical fruit, walnut, and hints of oak. On the palate, it's a fresh wine with a beautiful balance of mineral notes and crisp acidity. The finish is long and mouth-filling with a hint of orange.
