Sauvignon Blanc is considered a classic among aristocratic white wines. Like every great variety of vineyards, Sauvignon Blanc is the “baby” of the land on which it grows. Its aroma is permeated with an unusually strong varietal note which changes depending on the region in which it grows.

Character
Virtus’s Sauvignon Blanc wine is dominated by the aroma of the elder flower and melons, supplemented by discrete mineral notes and tones of mown grass and herbs: basil, coriander, i.e. parsley, chives, dill, marjoram, rosemary, sage, thyme, mint and nettle.

It has a distinctive bouquet, exceptional freshness and lightness, with well-balanced acids and alcohol. The wine is dry, of light yellow colour with greenish reflections, crystal clear, and when tasted it feels full, fresh and crisp. The richness and fullness of the wine with discreet shades of vanilla, which further refine its aromatic complex, are complemented by the fact that one part fermented and aged in barriques and French oak barrels.

Food matches for Sauvignon Blanc include:
White meat, including turkey, pork, seafood and freshwater fish, crabs, clams, shrimps and lobster. Cheeses – soft, salty and sour. Vegetables and vegetarian food – sautéed green vegetables, cucumber salad with yogurt and dill, and pasta with zucchini, béchamel sauce, Parmesan cheese and mushrooms.
