Pegasus Bay Sauvignon Semillon 2017
Descripción
En el excelente coupage de este vino, la Semillon ayuda a llenar el paladar, agregando peso de fruta, riqueza y capacidad de envejecimiento, delimitando la exuberancia de la Sauvignon blanc. El resultado es un blanco fragante, de refrescante mineralidad, con notas elegantes de mermelada de limón y flor de naranjo.

Opinión de los críticos
One suspects it must be difficult to sell the 2017 Sauvignon Semillon into a market that prizes youth in these sorts of wines. But this is no ordinary blend. It's 70% Sauvignon Blanc, mostly made in stainless steel, and 30% Sémillon, barrel fermented and aged in French oak. At nearly three years of age, this is pungent and grassy, loaded with lively citrus (grapefruit) and passion fruit aromas, and possessing a medium-bodied palate and linear feel. Perhaps it's a bit less rich and textured than some vintages, but it's amply concentrated and lingers a long time on the vibrant finish.
This is a very complex and zesty style with such piercing, lemon and green-mango aromas and flavors, delivered in a rich, powerfully concentrated frame. So much fruit here. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
