Details

Sauvignon Blanc is a global player. In France its country of origin Sauvignon Blanc is mainly represented in the regions of Bordeaux, Loire, Languedoc-Roussillon and Provence. On the Loire, the famous white wines of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé are vinified varietal purity. Sauvignons from Alto Adige in Italy, Spain's Rueda region or the Steiermark in Austria counts to the best representative of the World. But it also thrives on other continents. Well-known examples of this variety are found in New Zealand, the cooler coastal regions of Chile, and in South Africa. This variety has a characteristic bouquet, which can be intrusively unripe and grassy when the grapes are not fully ripe. When the grapes have good ripeness, they develop complex aromas of black currants, gooseberries and tropical fruit. The wines develop – according to the level of maturity – from discreet to very complex. The complex versions have wonderful ageing potential especially from malolactic fermentation and barrique maturation. When the grapes are very ripe, the complex aromas retreat and a powerful, spicy wine unfolds.
