TASTING NOTES
This organic wine from weingut Tement is one of the most important. The hand-picked and selected grapes come from 55 different plots of Sauvignon Blanc, grown mainly on mineral limestone soils of southern Styria, which give this wine a wonderfully chalky lime flavor. After spontaneous fermentation, the wine ages 6 months sur lie in stainless steel tanks. This 2020 organic Sauvignon Blanc Kalk & Kreide, although a bit shy at first, blooms on aeration, letting out a broad spectrum of citrus aromas, as well as quince and wild herbs. Complex texture on the palate from medium to full-bodied, chalky acidity well integrated in the long finish. From organically grown grapes. Ready to drink in 2021, it can be stored for another 6 years. The glass closure is one of its peculiarities.
