NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Ten Sisters Sauvignon Blanc has a pale lemon appearance with green reflections.On the nose, it offers pronounced aromas of tropical fruits such as passionfruit and guava. These aromas are complemented by hints of citrus, particularly lemon and lime, which add a zesty and invigorating element to the wine. The palate is lean and lively, with a perfect balance of acidity and fruitiness. The tropical fruit flavors continue to shine through, accompanied by notes of green apple and gooseberry. There is a pleasant herbaceous quality to the wine, with hints of freshly cut grass that are typical of the variety.
