Product information "Zandwijk Unorthodox Sauvignon Blanc 2017"
In a delicate straw colour, the Zandwijk Unorthodox Sauvignon Blanc flows into the glass and exudes classic aromas of fresh green grass and exotic tropical fruit. This dry and unwooded white wine presents itself well rounded on the palate and spoils with a crisp, fresh acidity and fine fruit nuances.
The "Unorthodox" wine range from Zandwijk offers a unique interpretation of traditional kosher wines. Perfect for celebrations such as Rosh ha-Shana, Chanuka and the Passover.

The grape material was completely destemmed and crushed, after which the juice obtained was treated "mevushal". Mevushal means that the juice for wine is first heated immediately after the grapes have been crushed and only then is it allowed to enter the further vinification process. The heated juice was fermented after cooling in stainless steel tanks and spent two months on the lees after fermentation was completed, before being filtered and bottled.
