Seasons leading up to the 2019 harvest was a dry but not warm, we have quite a big diurnal difference due to our altitude, thus the evenings was cool and days moderate during harvest. Due to the dry summer, harvesting of Sauvignon blanc grapes was early, starting on the 7th of February and receiving the last grapes the 1st of March. Picking of the grapes took place in the early hours of the morning– starting at 3 AM to ensure the grapes are cool. Grapes came in at sugars of 21-23 ° Brix, with acidities between 6.5 and 8.6 g/l.

Food Pairing

The ideal wine aperitif but best enjoyed with food. Refreshing summer time wine, it pairs well with salads and lighter meats. Richer seafood and cheese platters make it work through autumn and winter.
