Taste Profile: Hugo Mendes Vital is a wine from a fresh and airy terroir. It is acidic, light and has very present vegetal notes. It has a simple aroma, still quite closed but clean and pleasant, with an expressive mouthfeel
Winemaking Process: Grapes harvested at two different ripening stages, spontaneous fermentations and separate aging. Batch made before bottling. 100% fermented and aged in stainless steel. Late bottling to enhance the independent evolution of the two batches.
From the limestone character of Sancerre to the green, herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc of Marlborough, this style group often shows off cut grass and wet stone. Often associated with coastal regions or limestone based terroir, these wines are characterised with crisp acidity, mineraiity, citrus tones, with a hint of grassiness
