Information about "Morgenster Estate Reserve White 2023"
With a luminous golden hue reminiscent of sunny days, the Morgenster Estate Reserve White captivates in the glass with lush green reflections. It delights the nose with a vibrant bouquet of ripe white peaches and citrusy grapefruit, enhanced by aromatic herbs. Elegant notes of fragrant orange blossoms and citrus fruits elevate the aromatic complexity. On the palate, this blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon reveals astonishing complexity—elegant yet robust, with a harmonious balance of acidity and sweetness. The finish is smooth and lingering, inviting further exploration of its depths.
Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon were fermented in stainless steel tanks before being transferred to French oak barrels, where the alcoholic fermentation completed. Malolactic fermentation was inhibited by adding sulfur. The wine matured in second and third-fill barrels for 14 months, then aged six months in bottle before release. 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 40% Semillon.
