Information about "Iona Elgin Highlands Sauvignon Blanc 2024"
The Iona Sauvignon pampers with pure freshness of tangy lime and ripe gooseberries, exotic tropical fruit and fine floral and herbaceous nuances. In the finish it presents itself with delicious notes of pink grapefruit and white pear candies. A grandiose "cool climate" Sauvignon Blanc with a lively mineral, elegant and well-balanced character. The finish pampers in a long lasting, multi-layered and complex style.

Following harvest, the perfectly ripe grapes were fermented at controlled cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks. During fermentation, the yeast underwent regular stirring (batonnage), imparting excellent structure and fullness to the wine. Upon completion of fermentation, the Sauvignon Blanc was blended with 4% oak-aged Semillon to achieve a finely rounded balance.
