Sauvignon Blanc, Black Label

Why this particular wine?

Little Beauty Black Edition Sauvignon Blanc 2018 is a remarkable wine from Marlborough, New Zealand, created with a unique vision that elevates it above the typical Sauvignon Blanc. Coming from carefully selected vineyard blocks and produced in limited quantities only in exceptional years, this wine is designed to present an intense and complex profile. The wine undergoes partial barrel fermentation and longer lees maturation, giving it a richer, more structured mouthfeel and adding layers of depth not common in standard Sauvignon Blanc. What makes this wine truly special is its complex flavor profile, combining notes of tropical fruit, mango and passionfruit, with nuances of grapefruit, quartz minerality and subtle smoky notes from barrel aging.

Aroma

Very aromatic wine with notes of fresh tropical fruit such as ripe mango, passion fruit or blood orange. Tones of hot caramel, marmalade, baking sweet pastry, reminiscent of crème brulee.

Taste

The taste is slightly creamy, with a rich texture, complex - thanks to the "wild" yeast - there is an explosion of taste in the front, juicy. Wild herbs, passion fruit peel, kumquat. Followed by caramelized citrus fruits, quartz sludge, poached stones. It is beautifully persistent, long and generous.
