Wine Expert Note:
Upon pouring, the Alpha Estate Sauvignon Blanc Fumé graces the senses with a pale golden color, tinged with subtle green reflections. The bouquet is intense and multifaceted, with fragrant notes of ripe tropical fruits like passion fruit and mango, harmoniously intertwined with nuances of dried herbs, flint, and a touch of vanilla from the oak aging. As it ventures onto the palate, the wine showcases a robust character, presenting flavors of citrus zest, ripe stone fruits, and a wisp of smoky complexity. A beautiful underlying minerality, reflective of Amyndeon's unique terroir, is complemented by a bright acidity that ensures balance and longevity. The finish is persistent, leaving behind a trail of toasted almonds and citrusy freshness. This wine pairs beautifully with grilled seafood, white meats, or even as a standalone aperitif, making it a versatile choice for various gastronomic adventures.
