Description
For this wine, 100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes from 20-year-old vines were hand harvested and gently whole-cluster pressed in a horizontal, pneumatic press, with the juice fed to tanks via gravity. The must was fermented by indigenous yeasts and aged on the fine lees in temperature-controlled, stainless-steel tanks, the goal being to preserve Sauvignon Blanc’s naturally vibrant aromas and flavors.
Aromas of crushed oyster shells, white flowers, tallow fruit and citrus. Wonderful texture with bright flavors of stone fruit, underripe guava, Mirabelle plum, grapefruit pith and cantaloupe rind. The long, juicy finish is supported by a slightly chalky minerality and a hint of flint.
