Pacheca Sauvignon Blanc 2017

The 2017 viticultural year was characterized by being extremely dry and hot. The evolution of climatic conditions has contributed to an earlier sprouting that has occurred throughout the entire vegetative cycle. The harvest began on August 11, in some white varieties, and then followed with normality in the red varieties until the end of September. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes that made this wine origin come from the border areas of the Douro Demarcated Region. These are areas of high-altitude granite soils which originate wines of greater freshness and minerality. The fermentation occurred through thefermentation off skins process with Sau- vignon Blanc must. It underwent on a process of natural cleaning passages to remove the lees after the alcoholic fer-mentation and then a filtration coursewhich was followed by the bottling.
