Sauvignon Blanc is known for its floral and grassy notes. It's light, crisp, and easy drinking. It's great on its own, but we also like to blend it with Chardonnay, or make it on oak chips. Scroll down to learn more.

Originally from France, the Sauvignon Blanc grape is grown in Italy with higher sugar due to the warmer climate.These green skinned grapes form in small tight clusters, budding late but ripening early. Due to quick spoilage, these grapes need to be harvested immediately at ripening.
• Typically high in malic acid, green and red pepper flavours are detected
• Fresh and crisp with a strong sugar acid balance
• Hints of herbs and smokiness
• Temperature of fermentation has a great deal of influence on the wine, hot means mineral flavours and cool means more fruit and tropical flavours
• Naturally high in acid, barrel aging softens the wine a great deal
• When fermented on the skins it can sharpen the intensity and pungency
• Wine responds well to 6-12 months of aging, but can comfortably be consumed young as well
• Blends well with Chardonnay to make a Chablis style
• This wine can be oaked in a barrel or with oak chips
• Can also be made in the Sur Lie method
