SPARKLING SAUVIGNON BLANC
€10,29
It takes almost masterful intuition to choose something in which we can be different, something that is not usual. It is relatively rare to question conventions and at the same time win the favour of the public and the profession… but we’ve done it again with this Asti method sparkling wine.
Personal favorite
“We experiment a lot with Sauvignon Blanc, trying to discover its possibilities, because we want to push the boundaries of the variety. Every vintage inspires us to try a new approach.”
Sándor Mérész
chief winemaker
