Alta Tierra Sauvignon Blanc 2007With wave upon wave of racy, mouthwatering citrus fruit - Alta Tierra Sauvignon sets a dizzying benchmark.
"Electrifying!" wrote The Financial Times … and we can only agree! Deliciously pure expression of Sauvignon that confirms the purity of wines from Chile. And this comes from the country's most northern and highest altitude vineyard ... a racy, crisp Sauvignon of conversation-stopping quality!
The remote Elqui Valley is home to the world's highest vineyards - at 2,000m! It's up here where year-round sunshine guarantees perfectly ripe fruit that Aldo Olivier set up his "boutique operation producing wine with startling cool-climate purity" (Rose Murray Brown MW).
Aldo only makes tiny amounts of his top-of-the-range Alta Tierra wines … and this latest triumphant release will sell out fast - hurry for yours!
Intense gooseberry, guava and cut grass aromas … mouthwatering citrus flavours. An absolute delight on its own, with canapés, crudités, seafood of all kinds and fresh aromatic goat's cheeses. Great alternative to New Zealand or Sancerre!
