Tierra Antica Sauvignon Blanc 2020 6 bottle case
These attractively packaged wines are blended especially for us and show the kind of style and value that has put Chilean wines on the map over the past few years. Wonderful value for money.
Vinification
Most of the grapes wine were hand-harvested and only a small fraction was machine picked. Once received at the winery the bunches were selected in a sorting table, pressed and sent to the stainless steel tanks to undergo fermentation. 100% of the grapes are fermented in tanks at temperatures that varied between 12 - 16 Celsius for a period of 14 to 16 days with a strict control of temperature in order to protect the delicate aromatic expression in the must. The wine was then stabilized for 15 - 20 days at 4C and then earth-filtered prior to bottling.
Viticulture
The vines are vertically positioned, spaced at 1.5 x 2.2 m and drip irrigated. Our vineyard canopy management begins in the spring with the elimination of undesired shoots. The crops are green harvested to eliminate short shoots.
Tasting Note
Bright light yellow color with some greenish hues. On the nose appear intense mouth-watering citrus aromas that recall grapefruit and lime, along with a mineral slightly salty hint on the finish. With a moderate volume and elegant fruit character on the palate, this wine offers a bright refreshing acidity and good persistence. Its pleasing acidity and lovely finish
Everyday Serving Suggestion
