Specifications
In the cellar
The hand harvested grapes were transported to the cellar in the early hours of the morning. The grapes were pressed as quickly as possible upon arrival at the cellar. Cold alcoholic fermentation at 15-17°C ensured the preservation of typical Sauvignon blanc aromas. Two months of extended lees contact on the fine lees and regular lees stirring after fermentation gave the wine a lush and savoury palate texture.
In the vineyard
The vineyards are situated 200m and 400m above sea level. Vertical Shoot Positioning (VSP) trellis systems ensure the forming and preservation of classic Sauvignon blanc aromas along with carefull canopy management. The grapes were harvested at the end of February 2023.
