This Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant expression of the variety, bursting with aromas of guava, freshly mowed grass, and green pear. Bright citrus notes of lemon and grapefruit zest mingle with hints of white peach and a touch of minerality. The palate is crisp and refreshing, with zippy acidity balancing the juicy fruit leading to a clean, mouthwatering finish.
From the moment the grapes were harvested, meticulous care was taken to limit oxygen exposure, protecting the delicate aromatics of the fruit. To further enhance texture and complexity, a portion of the blend underwent stabulation, an extended period of lees contact at cold temperatures before the fermentation. This technique allowed for increased extraction of thiols and aromatic precursors, heightening the wine’s grapefruit, guava, and freshly mowed grass notes while adding subtle mid-palate weight.
Pairs well with spring vegetables, fish, salad, Thai food, Greek food, and desserts.
