Description
Colour: Clear. Nose: A vibrant yet composed aromatic profile, opening with fresh green melon and juicy tropical guava, followed by layered notes of passionfruit and blackcurrant. Bright citrus tones of grapefruit and blood orange bring lift and definition, while an underlying flinty, stone-like minerality anchors the fruit and adds a sense of cool precision. Palate: The palate is immediately shaped by a gentle saline entry, leading into a tight, chalk-etched structure. Green melon and blackcurrant notes carry through with clarity, joined by a subtle suggestion of dragon fruit that adds an exotic nuance. Balanced, finely tuned acidity tapers to a zesty, moreish finish.
Food Pairing
Sauvignon Blanc pairs well with briny, sour cheeses such as Goat's milk cheese, yogurt and Crème fraîche. It is also well matched with white meats such as chicken, salmon, sea bass and crab.
