VARIETAL:
Dry Sauvignon Blanc (<5g/l or up to 9g/l if TA <2g/l lower)

VINTAGE:
2023

MORE INFORMATION:
Clean, brilliant pale with a hint of limey greenness around the rim. Displaying layers of fruit complexity with aromas of asparagus, green fig, citrus, passion fruit as well as a hint of guava. The complexity of the nose is expressed on the palate giving this full-bodied wine a vibrant acidity and great length. A Surge is a sudden, powerful, forward or upward movement, especially by a natural force such as a tide. In the afternoon, the warm air rises and pulls in the cold air from the ocean, cooling down the vineyards, directly impacting the unique flavours you will find when opening this bottle. Watch out, it will hit you like a surge!

Our Sauvignon Blanc’s full mouthfeel and roundness tends to pair well with foods that offer a certain amount of zest, combining particularly well with veal lemone and grilled calamari. Also try it with steamed asparagus and an extra-tart home-made chive mayonnaise, a spaghetti vongole, an avocado soup or an herbed risotto.
