Product information "Eikendal Sauvignon Blanc 2019"
Eikendal Sauvignon Blanc pampers nose and palate with crystal clear aromas of fresh tropical fruit, fragrant melon, Cape gooseberry and guava, as well as fresh hints of green grass. On the palate a full mouthfeel is presented in combination with a refined minerality and a lively yet subtle play of acidity. The finish is pleasant and long lasting.

The grapes for this Sauvignon Blanc were crushed and gently pressed with great care, whereupon the first free-running juice was separated from the juice obtained from further pressing. 80% of the juice fermented for 2-3 months in stainless steel tanks with carefully selected yeast cultures. The remaining part fermented in second and third filled barrels to give the wine a rounder mouthfeel, depth and structure.
