Atlantique Sauvignon Blanc
WHY WE LOVE IT
- Fabulous Sauvignon Blanc grapes are harvested at full maturity from a combination of Loire Valley and Cotes de Gascogne vineyards.
- Fresh and zesty easy-drinking wine that is suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
Varietal Composition: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Elaboration: Slow and gentle pressing follows the first phase of skin maceration to extract the aromatic compounds contained in the skins. Light racking after fermentation in stainless steel tanks between 55° F and 59 °F. Racking during the end of alcoholic fermentation and ageing on lees until spring to add another layer of complexity to the wine.
Tasting Notes: Vibrant tropical fruit and citrus aromas blend with intensely fruity and zesty flavours making this a fresh and delicious crowd pleaser.
