Sauvignon Blanc 2006, halbtrocken (semi dry)
The Sauvignon Blanc is one of the best known wine varieties worldwide. In Austria it is most respected
for its especially fine, highly aromatic and fruity wines which are with their pithy acidity ideal food
companions. In the warm times of the year, Austrian Sauvignon Blancs are also always a hot tip while
sipped cold. Our Sauvignon Blancs from the Seewinkel are generally very aromatic, fruity and offer a
hearty ripe overall impression with a palatable acidity.
Tasting notes: The semi dry Sauvignon Blanc 2006 appeals with slight tones of elderflower and
fruity notes. Its taste is elegant and almost dry. The tiny bit of sweetness perfectly distinguishes the
Sauvignon Blancs fine flavours. This wine is ideally suited as an aperitif. The small but noticeable
residual sugar content, combined with the full body have an inspiring and appetizing effect. It also
serves well to a great range of stronger food that would otherwise be too intense for a light and dry
white wine.
Drinking suggestions: Best to drink within two or three years after the harvest. Serve at
6-8° C (43-47 F).
