Description
Branko’s richly aromatic and highly distinctive Sauvignon offers a range of perceptions reminiscent of pennyroyal, sage, rosemary and elderflowers, tempting the nostrils with a thrillingly satisfying aromatic banquet. The fragrances derive from the grape’s genetic heritage and Igor has chosen not to layer them with the elegant toasty nuances of maturation in small oak, a procedure which is not used with this wine type. Structure and savouriness find perfect balance.
