Krakat’inii Sauvignon Blanc, DO Aconcagua (25cl can) 2023
Campers, glampers, something fab for your hampers. Whether you're erecting a tent or rounding the Horn, Krakat'inii can quench. A deliciously aromatic drop from the Pacific's exotic shores, a Sauvignon Blanc bursting with Chile's fecund vines.
Production
The Sauvignon Blanc grapes are grown in three excellent sites. The proximity of the vineyards to the Pacific Ocean (only 10kms away) and its fresh coastal breezes ensures grapes ripen slowly. This allows the grapes to retain their natural citrus flavours and freshness but also to develop great aromatics. Sauvignon Blanc grapes in Leyda are some of the first to be harvested in Chile, and winemaking is simple to preserve this crunchy, bright fruit. Cool fermentation in stainless steel is followed by a couple of months on their fine lees which adds texture and depth. We bottle early to retain the primary characters, flavours and freshness of this enchanting fruit.
Tasting Notes
Deliciously grassy, exotically fragrant yet coolingly dry.
Food Match
Great with shellfish or with some good old fish and chips!
