Food Matching Note:
Drinks very well with shellfish - particularly prawns or lobster and will compliment salads, club sandwiches and pasta, particularly with chicken or ham.
Tasting Note:
Straw yellow in colour with delicate citrus and melon aromas and a hint of fresh cut grass. Well balanced melon, citrus and herbal notes with a crisp acidity that makes this wine racy and refreshing. Good volume that fills the palate giving a pleasant and lingering finish.
Grape:
Made from the Sauvignon Blanc grape, famed for producing Pouilly Fumé and Sancerre.
Location:
Grapes are sourced from the cooler Casablanca Valley in the foothills of Chile's Andes.
Flavour:
Medium bodied with fresh melon and pineapple flavours and a zesty freshness.
USP:
A fantastic Chilean twist on a very popular grape variety.
Combined:
Filled with fresh fruit flavours and a refreshing zing, this is a perfect aperitif style wine filled with the sunshine of Chile.
Vinification Note:
Individual parcels of grapes are selected from within the MontGras estate for their ripe fruit character and acidic balance. They are crushed gently and fermented cool at controlled temperatures in stainless steel. After settling, they are filtered and fined before bottling.
