Our Project Paso Sauvignon Blanc has classic varietal aromas of lemon and grass, with hints of honey and lime from a small percentage of Semillon. A white grape often blended with Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon lends extra complexity and a hint of richness to the mouthfeel. On the palate, flavors of Meyer lemon marmalade come together with the citrus zing of key lime and grapefruit, mellowed by green apple notes in the background. Great structure and length come from the integrated acidity of this wine, and the transition from sweet fruit to zippy finish is fresh and crowd-pleasing.
Sauvignon Blanc is a classic white-wine variety popular in the Bordeaux and eastern Loire regions of France.
New Zealand's climate has been conducive to the growth of this varietal, resulting in a perfumed, fruity style that has reached North America as well as France. Fumé Blanc is just another name for Sauvignon Blanc.
You can expect the flavors of herbs and grassy and apple flavors, plus olive and a soft, smoky flavor. These wines can range from sweet to dry, but are typically very light, crisp and acidic. Read More...
