Bordeaux Court

Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon are two varieties of French origin. Together they have given rise to the great white wines of Bordeaux. Sauvignon Blanc provides excellent liveliness and freshness while Semillon provides elegance and body to the cut.

Sauvignon Blanc 95 %

Harvested by hand in crates the first week of March. After maceration in the press for approximately 5 hours, the press is lowered into a tank for debugging for 12 hours. Once the deburring is finished, it is racked to separate the lees. The must is sown with selected yeasts and once alcoholic fermentation begins, only 20% is placed in French barrels. Fermentation takes place in 4 single-use barrels. It is done at a low temperature (18o C) and takes about 14 days. After fermentation, the wine remains in contact with the thick lees for 1 month with batonages every other day. The wine is then racked, and the fine lees remain in the barrel for 11/12 months with a weekly batonage. While 80% of the wine is fermented and aged in 3300 liter concrete eggs.
