Sauvignon Blanc

Sauvignon Blanc Wine Details
Price: $15.00 per bottle

Description: The uniqueness of this wine is in the process: it is made with free run juice exclusively. There is no pressed juice. When you press Sauvignon Blanc grapes, the herbal character of the skins becomes preeminent. The free run is the juice coming out of the grapes without pressing. This juice makes a wine that is light on the attack but becomes expansive and rich in the mouth. Our Sauvignon Blanc starts with grapefruit nuances and develops into melony and peach. The Semillon (10%) brings a note of roundness and riper flavors like fig. The barrel fermentation (40%) adds richness, depth and complexity.
