Coup de Foudre - Sauvignon Blanc 2024 (750ml) Monção e Melgaço acidity and mouth coating tanninsThe 2024 vintage is a light to medium bodied, 14. 2% ABV Sauvignon Blanc with crisp acidity and bright minerality. Aromas include yuzu citrus zest, lychee, stone fruit, and subtle flint, with floral hints like honeysuckle. On the palate, it opens with a burst of melon and tropical notes (guava, honeydew) followed by pink grapefruit and a creamy mid palate reminiscent of fresh custard. The finish is long and balanced, with crisp acidity lingering.
