This Sauvignon Blanc Reserve, Sangue Real 2019, underwent a 12-month aging process in stainless steel, followed by an additional 6 months in oak barrels prior to bottling. The wine showcases a citrus color and a complex flavor profile with aromas of spices and dried fruit. It also boasts a vibrant acidity and a long, dry aftertaste with a subtle bitterness that enhances its gastronomic potential. Perfect for pairing with oven-baked fish and white meats, this wine is made from hand-harvested Sauvignon Blanc grapes with a controlled yield of 5 tons per hectare. The vineyards are situated near the Natural Park of Serra da Arrábida, just 5 km from the Atlantic Ocean, with the Arrábida mountains acting as a barrier to reduce the maritime influences and create ideal maturation conditions. The grapes were carefully monitored for ripeness and were hand-harvested, de-stemmed, and pressed.
