Dornier Cocoa Hill Sauvignon Blanc 2022 750ml

Tasting Note by the Winemaker
White our Sauvignon Blanc we aim at making an easily accessible wine with tropical fruit flavours. To us the balance between the fruit and acidity is of utmost importance to ensure enjoyable drinking. In this wine one will smell aromas of pineapple, green melon and citrus. The palate is lively with bright acidity with flavours of pineapple, ripe limes, green apples and a lingering aftertaste.

Vintage Conditions
2021 was a great year for Sauvignon Blanc on Dornier. The cool season led to grapes ripening at lower sugar levels while retaining its natural acidity and delicate flavours.

Fermentation and Ageing
This wine is made from the grapes of two different vineyards on our Keerweder property. Four different batches of grapes were individually fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel. Flavour and style specific yeast were selected as to obtain the desired fruit and aroma characteristics. Post fermentation, the wine was left on full lees for a further four months
