The palate is gentle and clean, with well-defined acidity balancing the vibrant fruit. A delicate bitterness characteristic of Sauvignon Blanc lingers on the finish, while fruit, acidity and savoury umami come together to create a complex yet harmonious profile. Full of flavour without feeling heavy, this is a fresh and highly drinkable white wine. Its delicate, clean character makes it particularly well suited to Japanese cuisine, as well as a wide range of dishes from cold starters to seafood and lighter main courses such as chicken.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood pairing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSea bream carpaccio, salt-seasoned bonito tataki, sake-steamed clams, salt-grilled ayu, chicken tenderloin with mitsuba and ume dressing, wild vegetable tempura, grilled asparagus, pork shabu-shabu with citrus dressing, herb-grilled white fish, roast chicken with lemon, fresh spring rolls with prawns and herbs, steamed fish with spring onion and ginger sauce, fresh goat’s cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSauvignon 2024 is a white wine made from estate-grown grapes in Tomi, Nagano, with reduced use of agricultural chemicals. The blend consists of 68% Sauvignon Blanc and 32% Sémillon and was vinified at Arc-en-Vigne. In the vineyard, pesticide use is limited to approximately 45% of the level recommended under the regional spraying programme.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 growing season saw persistent rainfall around harvest, affecting the grapes as they approached full ripeness. Sugar levels also remained lower than in the previous year, with harvest progressing somewhat earlier. Particular attention was therefore given to selection in the vineyard. Fruit was carefully sorted for around two months leading up to harvest, with further selection on picking days to ensure that only healthy, high-quality bunches were brought into the winery. Although the final yield was reduced to approximately half the usual volume, this rigorous selection allowed the best fruit to be used for the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFermentation took place with indigenous yeasts, followed by maturation in stainless steel tanks. The wine was bottled unfined and unfiltered. Only small amounts of sulphur dioxide were used, at pressing and again at bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bright acidity and Japanese citrus character of Sauvignon Blanc are complemented by the additional texture and balance brought by Sémillon. Careful fruit selection in 2024 has resulted in a harmonious combination of acidity, fruit, savoury umami, and subtle bitterness, making this a particularly versatile wine at the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnly 582 bottles were produced, and this limited cuvée is being released in Europe for the very first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutrition Facts per 100ml\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnergy: 72 kcal\u003cbr\u003eFat: 0 g\u003cbr\u003e - Saturates: 0 g\u003cbr\u003eCarbohydrate: 1.0 g\u003cbr\u003e - Sugar: 1.0 g\u003cbr\u003eProtein: 0.1 g\u003cbr\u003eSalt: 0g\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yone Farm TOMI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57073256431947,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/7252\/9245\/files\/Sauvignon202401_f62f77cc-3409-4437-b2f1-ce463159f48a.jpg?v=1789472622","url":"https:\/\/gubi-gubi.nl\/products\/sauvignon-2024","provider":"GUBI GUBI","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
