The Iona Sauvignon pampers with pure freshness of tangy lime and ripe gooseberries, exotic tropical fruit and fine floral and herbaceous nuances. In the finish it presents itself with delicious notes of pink grapefruit and white pear candies. A grandiose "cool climate" Sauvignon Blanc with a lively mineral, elegant and well-balanced character. The finish pampers in a long lasting, multi-layered and complex style.

After the harvest, the perfectly ripened grapes fermented in stainless steel tanks at a cool, controlled temperature. During fermentation, the yeast was regularly stirred (batonnage), giving the wine its excellent structure and fullness. After the fermentation was completed, the Sauvignon Blanc was blended with 4% Semillon in order to achieve a finely rounded balance in the wine.
