WINE DESCRIPTION
Cupcake Sauvignon Blanc is a refreshing and crisp white wine produced by Cupcake Vineyards. This wine is made from grapes grown in select vineyards located on New Zealand's South Island. The vineyards are known for their cool climate and coastal breezes, which allow the grapes to ripen slowly and develop complex flavors. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing of the grapes and fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the wine's natural acidity and fruit flavors. Cupcake Sauvignon Blanc is a dry wine with bright citrus and tropical fruit notes, making it a perfect pairing for seafood, salads, and light pasta dishes.
