Sauvignon Blanc
7 000 Ft
Sauvignon Blanc from Badacsony. Clean with pale straw color and green highlights. The nose is pronounced and carries a varietal character with green vegetal notes of green pea, nettle, grass, smoked rosemary, lime, and green apple. The herbal notes dominate the fruit. On the palate, high crisp acidity and integrated alcohol give a light elegant structure to the wine. The fruity flavors open up and add more complexity with grapefruit and lime notes. The finish carries the varietal notes and fades into flinty minerals. (Tamás Czinki MS)
Description
Winemaking
Gentle whole-cluster pressing. Must settling and fermentation at 18°C in oxygen-permeable plastic tanks, followed by racking after two months. Aged in tanks; after fining and filtration in June, the wine was bottled in July 2024.
Vintage
Overall, it was a warm but notably rainy year, making vineyard management particularly important. Spring started promising with early budbreak, followed by relatively early flowering. However, summer saw significant rainfall, which delayed the harvest. Picking only began in mid-September with Pinot Noir for sparkling wine, while the last grapes, Riesling, were brought into the cellar in early October.
