Fat Bastard Sauvignon Blanc 2003
Sauvignon Blanc
from Languedoc-Roussillon, France - Other regions
winemaker's notes:
The color is bright and pale with green reflections. The nose is open with blackcurrant aromas and the grassiness that goes so well with Sauvignon Blanc. On the palate the wine is crisp, fresh and vivid, perfect to enjoy on its own or with seafood.
Rigorous parcel selection allowed us to produce a new blend that adheres to our highest quality standards. Despite a very hot 2003 vintage we've been able to keep the juice on skin contact in order to get as much fruit character as possible. The fermentation process was maintained at low temperatures (14 to 16 degrees Celsius) and no malolactic fermentation was permitted, to preserve the crisp character of the wine.
