Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Bouchard Finlayson, teknisk ark/fact sheet (hentet 18. okt. 2026): 2024 Bouchard Finlayson Sauvignon Blanc – område: Walker Bay; 87% Sauvignon Blanc, 13% Sémillon; alkohol 13.3%. Producentens noter (engelsk): Vinifikation: Hand-picked grapes are delivered to the winery without delay, where it is destemmed and crushed before being loaded into the presses. Once the berries are broken, the juice is protected from oxidation and the resulting loss of delicate flavour precursors, by blanketing under carbon dioxide. The initial 63% juice recovered is kept separate and only this ’free-run’ component is considered for the final blend. These juices contain less phenols and result in bright and crisp wines with pure fruit expression and an improved ability to age. Fermentation temperatures range from a cool 13 degrees centigrade to a balmy 20 degrees centigrade, allowing for the development of various aroma and flavour complexities. Bottled in June 2024. Producentens noter (engelsk): Smagsnote: An explosive nose combines fig and gooseberry aromas alongside a hint of thyme. The fleshy texture and flavourful palate of green apple and sliced grapefruit is kept in balance by fine refreshing lines. Satisfying fruit weight and lemony concentration leads to a seamless finish. Serve chilled and enjoy as the wine unfolds in your glass
