Franklin Tate Estates
Sauvignon Blanc
“Extremely refreshing with great intensity and balance”
Wine Making Notes
The cool juice was crushed, pressed and clarified, into stainless steel tanks and fermented using an aromatic yeast strain, to assist in the release of tropical and herbal flavours, during fermentation. The wine was lightly fined, stabilised, and filtered, for early release.
Nose
Lovely aromas of tropical fruits and hint of musk. Vibrant snow pea, passionfruit, cucumber and lantana.
Palate
Extremely refreshing with great intensity and balance. Flavours of ripe tropical fruits combined with herbaceous varietal characters. Bright racy acidity drives the style and flavours which finish crisp and dry.
Allergens
Contains sulphites. Fined with the aid of fish and milk products, traces may remain
Food Pairing
Serve this wine slightly chilled with soft cheese, various leafy green salads, seafood or white meats.
