Koyonka Barrel Selection Sauvignon Blanc
Koyonka, Barrel Selection, 750 ml
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Viña Tunquelén, Curicó Valley
Composition: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Vintage: 2016
Oenologist: Benoit Fitte
Pairing: This is a wine to pair perfectly with simple, barely seasoned ingredients such as raw and lightly cooked shellfish like oysters and shell-on prawns, fresh crab and simply grilled fish such as sea bass, especially with olive oil. They also work well with dishes that contain young goats’ cheeses – or salads that contain goat’s cheese. This wine can be a great companion for oysters and ceviche. It is also remarkable as aperitif. Serve at 9°-12°C (48°F-54°F).
Tasting notes:
Colour: This is a bright pale almost transparent yellow colour wine with green hues.
Aromas: On the nose, the wine has fresh citrus fruit and orange blossom, gooseberry and asparagus aromas.
Palate: The concentrated fruit flavours are vibrant and lively on the palate, and the finish is crisp and fruity. It is an elegant and well-defined wine with fine acidity.
Reference value – Case of 9 litres – equivalent to 12 bottles of 750 cc.
