Tenuta Montemagno Musae

Sauvignon Blanc from three clones grown in a west-facing vineyard at Montemagno, aged on the lees in steel.

Tasting notes

Straw yellow with clear green highlights. White flowers, acacia and hawthorn, with grapefruit and exotic fruit. Fresh, with a delicate fruity tang, great minerality and long aromatic persistence.
