Veramonte Sauvignon Blanc 2011

750ML
Sku: 017649

Casablanca Valley in Chile is the premier place in the southern hemisphere to grow Sauvignon Blanc that ripens to perfection with rich fruit flavors complemented by lively acidity. Our Sauvignon Blanc grapes are grown in our estate vineyards with well-drained, sandy decomposed granite and alluvial soils. Warm days and cool nights are the signature conditions of the dry growing season.

Tasting notes

Good clarity with light straw color
AROMA
Fresh lemon-lime fruit, intense peach, citrus, and herbs mingle with floral accents
TASTING NOTES
Medium-bodied with tropical and citrus fruit flavors of white grapefruit and lime with a long crisp finish and some minerality

Review

Visibly clean and clear, on the nose vaguely pineapple, honeydew melon with citrus lime, and refreshing flavors especially banana, some spice, verdant herbs and a creamy factor.

Wine maker notes

Sauvignon Blanc grapes are grown in the estate vineyards across a total of 47 vineyard blocks. Warm days and cool nights contribute to long, even ripening. Sauvignon Blanc vines are trellised with an interior tunnel to increase airflow so that the grapes do not overheat and retain freshness, aromatics and flavor. The wine is fermented in stainless steel.
