Borghese Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc |
2008 Castello di Borghese Founder's Field Reserve Sauvignon Blanc Estate Bottled at Long Island's first and finest
OUR SIGNATURE WHITE! Stainless steel fermented. No malolactic fermentation to retain the fruit’s natural acidity. Stirred on the lees for three months to extract fuller body and additional aromatics. Aged in French oak puncheons for seven months. Medium gold hue. Papaya, hay, limestone, and a touch of cream on the nose. The palate is full-bodied with flavors of sweet cantaloupe, papaya, custard, mandarin orange, with a crisp and mineral finish reminiscent of a Bordeaux white. |
