I've have a job that takes me to the wine region in the western cape of South Africa a lot and, there, i have become quite fond of the local Sauvignon Blanc and Cape Red (Rosé) wines (Cathedral Cellar for example). Now, my question is: I am taking my vacation not too far west from Bordeaux this September; what can i expect from the Sauvignon Blanc grapes grown in that region compared to South Africa? Drier? More grass? Less fuit? Someone told me that these wines in France often suffer bottle chock and you have to open them a day or two before you drink them. Is that true?
