THE WINE:
Dr. Fischer – Hofstatter’s Sauvignon Blanc has a bright straw yellow color with greenish hues. Hints of white-fleshed fruit, citrus peel and elderflower stand out on the nose, combined with light hints of aromatic herbs and flint. The taste is fresh, aromatic and dynamic, with a pleasant citrus and slightly savoury finish.
VINIFICATION:
The manual harvest is followed by a brief pre-fermentation maceration of the grapes, after which the must is softly pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The maturation of a few months takes place in the same type of wine containers before the final bottling.
FOOD PAIRING:
This is a very vertical white wine that can be paired with a wide range of seafood dishes, such as mixed fried fish, seafood risotto or octopus salad. Although it is excellent when young, thanks to its marked acidity this Sauvignon can also withstand several years of bottle aging.
