Bottega Vinai Trentino Sauvignon Blanc

A fine, distinctly varietal style of Sauvignon Blanc, a selection from Cavit's best plantings of the variety in the cool Valle dei Laghi.

Production

Bottega Vinai Sauvignon is made exclusively from Sauvignon Blanc grapes cultivated in the hills of the Valle dei Laghi, Trentino. The average grape yield is 70 hl/ha. De-stalked grapes undergo cold maceration for 12 hours to facilitate extraction of the aromas. After this the grapes are soft pressed and undergo temperature controlled fermentation.

Tasting Notes 

Intense yet refined varietal characteristics, herbaceous, nettle, elderflower, tropical fruit and lemon zest. Palate is ripe and juicy with crisp citrus acidity and white peach notes, an attractive texture and depth, and a gently floral finish.

Try with prawn risotto, spaghetti with clams, or goats cheese and grilled white meat.
