Sauvignon Blanc

Sauvignon Blanc is a dry and crisp wine, characterised by a varied and complex aromatic bouquet. On the palate, with a marked acidity, it expresses freshness, roundness and a beautiful structure with excellent aromatic persistence. After gently being deposited in oak barrels and fermented for several months, this wine gives a wonderful restoration of the unique flavours of this grape.
