Dveri Pax Sauvingon Blanc V

2017 Sauvignon Blanc “V”

White wine

The col­our me­dium deep, golden. In­tense and var­ied on the nose, show­ing ma­tur­ity. We per­ceive notes of fully ripe Sauvignon Blanc, where ripe trop­ical fruits, car­a­mel and spices are dom­in­ant while clas­sic grassy, ve­getal, and green notes are gently ex­pressed at the back. Sen­sa­tions of bar­rel age­ing are subtle, very much like in 2015. This is not “in your face” Sauvignon Blanc vari­etal aroma, but still clearly re­cog­niz­able. Dry, full bod­ied on the pal­ate. Acid­ity level is giv­ing it a firm back­bone and is sur­pris­ingly high con­sid­er­ing the ripe­ness and al­co­hol level. Clearly a heavy-​weight wine, but still giv­ing a re­fined ex­per­i­ence of a ripe Sauvignon Blanc.

Main courses with white meat and spicy sauces.

  • Sauvignon Blanc: 100 %

2017 vin­tage brought a very warm sum­mer and one of the earli­est starts of the har­vest. In mid-​September grapes were af­fected by a longer period of rain. Early ripen­ing vari­et­ies fared much bet­ter, while late-​ripening vari­et­ies had much less quant­ity.

36 months in small 600L French oak bar­rels. Ma­tured on fine lees.

  • Alcohol content: 15,00 % vol.
  • Acidity: 6,85 g/l
  • Residual sugar content: 1,6 g/l
  • Closure type: Cork

Already ma­ture, but far from the peak. Due to its high acid­ity longev­ity is al­most guar­an­teed. Drink from 2020-2027.
