Product detailed description
This variety is grown on slopes at an altitude of 300 m.a.s.l. in the Langhe area, Diano D'Alba. The management technique of these vineyards is the guyot system. The soil of the vineyard is calcareous and sandy. The production takes place in the separation of the grapes from the stalks and subsequent maceration at a temperature of 10°C followed by gentle pressing. Fermentation takes place in a stainless steel tank at a controlled temperature 14 - 16 ° for 20 days.
Sauvignon is an ancient French variety, probably originating from the Bordeaux region. Sauvignon requires very good slope positions of the vineyard, good breathability of the soil and higher humidity. Depending on the location of the vineyard, the year and of course the wine production technology, the taste varies significantly. In more northerly regions and with higher humidity, grassy, nettle, and peppery notes are created in the aroma and taste. With a higher proportion of sun and better ripeness of the grapes, the taste is more fruity, for example gooseberry, kiwi, with hints of lemon. Then, in the case of softer and rounder wines, the flavor is more peach, apricot, nectarine and melon. From overseas, we can mainly encounter notes of tropical fruit. Sauvignon wines are mainly aperitif wines, with cold appetizers, with asparagus, with goat cheese. Fuller and more mature wines can also be paired with spicy dishes, strong cheeses such as gorgonzola, or fish sauces.
