Krakat'inni Sauvignon Blanc Cans

Sweetness: Dry

Grape: Sauvignon Blanc

Grape info: Though indigenous to France, Sauvignon’s unique aromatic profile has seen it successfully transplanted all over the world to become the third most cultivated variety, behind only Chardonnay and Airén. Its enduring popularity is down to its distinctive, multi-layered combination of youthful, ‘green’ flavours matched with a keen acidity, capable of producing wines of real substance.

About: The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are grown in three excellent sites. The proximity of the vineyards to the Pacific Ocean (only 10kms away) and its fresh coastal breezes ensures grapes ripen slowly. This allows the grapes to retain their natural citrus flavours and freshness but also to develop great aromatics. Sauvignon Blanc grapes in Leyda are some of the first to be harvested in Chile, and winemaking is simple to preserve this crunchy, bright fruit.

Cool fermentation in stainless steel is followed by a couple of months on their fine lees which adds texture and depth. We bottle early to retain the primary characters, flavours and freshness of this enchanting fruit.

Tasting note: Deliciously grassy, exotically fragrant yet coolingly dry.

Character: Cut-grass, citrus, passionfruit
