Township 7 Reserve Sauvignon Blanc Blue Terrace Vineyard 2017

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe “Reserve” SB is made with the best fruit parcels from Blue Terrace Vineyard on the north Oliver Bench. It’s 100 percent barrel fermented and aged for seven months, 15 percent in new French oak and the remainder in neutral oak barrels. It is stirred weekly during fermentation and ageing to increase the texture and mouthfeel. I applaud the lower RS and the effort to make a more complex style of sauvignon. Look for a classic passionfruit nose that spills on to a silky, grassy, soft palate with hints of gooseberry and citrus. A perfect wine for prawns.Tasted: 05 November 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
