About this wine

Grapes

The wine is made from three different Sauvignon Blanc clones.

Vinification

Vinified in stainless steel tanks, where it remains until it reaches maturity.

Tasting profile

Harmonious, juicy, rich and aromatic. According to the critic Ian D'Agata, it shows less of the pronounced "green" character that many people associate with Sauvignon Blanc, together with finesse and subtle concentration.
