The exuberant nose follows through onto the palate in
generous, mouth-filling flavours of nettle and asparagus,
showing sleek, almost sweet nuances from ripe grapes.
The fruit/acid balance is delicately poised; the finish long and supple. Pale straw with brilliant pale-green hues. The wine is almost luminous in its intensity. A stunning nose that captures all the classic Sauvignon aromas: fresh-mowed grass, green peppers, fig leaf and crushed herbs, with undertones of juicy, ripe peaches and pineapples, and a hint of luscious greengage fruit. An elegant, dry wine for many occasions. Drink this summer (and why not this winter?) with grilled, baked or poached fish as well as shellfish. A perfect partner for fresh oysters, mussels, deep-fried calamari and sole meunière. Delightful with cheese soufflés, a plate of salami or other cold cuts with olives, vegetarian pastas, salads, veal schnitzel and fried chicken or enjoy on its own. Serve well chilled at 10 - 12ºC.
