GRAPE VARIETY

Sauvignon Blanc

WINEMAKING

Pressing of the grapes - alcoholic fermentation between 15-20°C / 60-68°F. Aging on lees in vats with oxygenation control.

TASTING NOTES

Straw yellow color with greenish rim, bright and brilliant. Delicate and typical nose of the appellation displaying aromas of citrus like Meyer lemon, pink grapefruit, and nuances of fresh grass and gooseberries framed by a chalky tone. The palate is dry and steely with a good concentration of fruit evolving on a long and mineral-chalky finish.

PAIRING

Grilled fish, ceviche-like seafood, or goat cheese. Best served between 10-12°C / 50-54°F.
