Varietal: Sauvignon Blanc/ Semillon Vintage: 2018 

Colour: White Style: Dry

Producer: Pegasus Bay

Description:

Pegasus Bay's Sauvignon Semillon is pale gold with aromas of citrus fruit, greengage, gooseberry and passionfruit. There is also a hint of struck match and freshly crushed thyme. The Semillon component helps fill out the palate, adding fruit weight, richness and age-ability, while also acting to restrain the exuberant herbaciousness of the sauvignon blanc. The lees contact adds further creaminess and body, however there is still a crisp refreshing minerality on the finish.

Tasting Note:
Crisp and dry, lemon and citrus fruits that persevere. Sauvignon Blanc of extremely high quality with honeyed flavours on the palette. Crisp and textured flavours from the Semillon.
