La Motte Sauvignon Blanc 2019
Description
The wine has a greeny straw colour. On the nose, gooseberry is the first impression, followed by pineapple, lime and wild grass. With low alcohol, acid and residual sugar, one would expect a thin wine; with this wine it is not the case, though. The palate is well balanced, well polished and medium-round, with a clean, dry and refreshing finish.

Palate
Full and sumptuous on the palate. The finish is still juicy, light and lingering, with a fresh acidity
Food Pairing
With its natural acidity and sharp texture, this wine pairs beautifully with sea-foods, sea-food pasta and spicy foods such as Chinese and Thai dishes. Also goes extremely well with dishes containing sharp seasonings, and salty eats such as pre-dinner canapés. Natural partner to goat’s cheese. On its own, a refreshing aperitif wine.
