Viu Manent
Secret Sauvignon Blanc
| The Secret de Viu Manent wines are made in a modern style and make the most of the primary fruit characteristics of each grape variety. Whilst the dominant grape variety is expressed on the label, 15% of the blend of each wine is kept a closely guarded secret. The grapes for this wine come from two vineyards located in different sectors of the cool Casablanca Valley. One is located beside the town of Casablanca and the other is in Las Dichas, approximately 11 km (7 miles) from the sea. | |

| Tasting note |
This wine is very light, almost clear greenish-yellow in color. The nose is very fresh with citrus notes such as lime and grapefruit along with exotic fruits, pineapple, and passion fruit. The fresh and fruity palate has a mineral quality, depth, tremendous volume, and a long, persistent finish.

| Awards and Accolades |
91 points, Luis Gutierrez, June 2014'2013 was a very cold vintage and produced a very fresh, aromatic wine (and also high yields), but the grapes ripened properly as they harvested very late. With herbaceous notes, great acidity and tension as well as a very lively palate, the great intensity of flavors are pure and clean, quite Sancerre-like, with a mineral, salty finish. A great Sauvignon at a very attractive price, this white is very drinkable but should have an interesting evolution in bottle.' www.eRobertParker.com |
