Winemaking Process
After harvest, the Sauvignon Blanc grapes are gently pressed, and the juice undergoes cold static decanting for 24 hours. Fermentation, initiated with carefully selected dry yeasts, is carried out at a maintained temperature of 59–60°F over 3–4 weeks. The wine is then aged on its lees with bâtonnage for one month to enhance texture and flavor. Following a two-week settling period, it is racked and bottled, ensuring freshness and vibrancy in every sip.

Tasting Notes
This Sauvignon Blanc greets the senses with tropical citrus aromas and bright grapefruit. A clean, balanced minerality accompanies flavors of green bell pepper and subtle herbaceous notes, finishing smoothly with lively acidity.
