Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Bouchard Finlayson, teknisk ark/fact sheet (hentet 18. okt. 2026): 2022 Bouchard Finlayson Sauvignon Blanc – område: Hemel-en-Aarde Valley; 87% Sauvignon Blanc, 13% Sémillon; alkohol 13.2%. Producentens noter (engelsk): Vinifikation: Varied picking dates stretch through a period of up to three weeks, allowing for the creation of a wine that is balanced by crisp acidity and a rich fruit profile - induced by a later ripening. A small portion of the grapes undergoes a skin-contact period, in which the backbone for a full and concentrated mouthfeel starts to form. Fruit arrives at the cellar before the heat of the afternoon and is gently crushed, destemmed and pressed. Free-run portions are fermented long and cool, followed by a lengthy lees maturation period in tank (sur lie). 87% Sauvignon Blanc & 13% Semillon Producentens noter (engelsk): Smagsnote: An enthralling nose of white peach, lime zest and granny smith apples complements a silky, coated mid-pallet that lingers in the mouth. The bright minerality typical of the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley elevates flavours of orange peel, pear and layers of fragrant jasmine. Balanced and integrated, this wine has a crisp core that speaks of a clean-cut complexity. Serve chilled and enjoy as the wine unfolds in your glass.
