Giesen The August Sauvignon Blanc 23 (6x750ml)

Bold, complex, and unconventional - this wine is the mark of the man whose outrageous legacy is inextricably tied to the Giesen story. August Giesen (pronounced Aw-goost), born 1888, was a sommelier, restauranteur, hotelier, and a bit of a local legend in his native Germany. To Giesen Wines founders Theo, Alex, and Marcel, he was simply ‘Opa’. This elegant barrel-fermented Sauvignon Blanc displays all of the boundary-pushing characteristics of its namesake. Hand-picked and wild fermented with integrated oak, this complex and multi-dimensional wine is a fitting tribute to a legend.
