Region: Valul lui Traian, Moldova
Grape: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Vintage: 2022

Style: Dry White Wine

Appearance:
A radiant pale yellow in the glass, laced with delicate green highlights—expressive of youth, freshness, and purity.

Aromas:
The bouquet is vibrant and layered, offering a symphony of aromas that captivate the senses. Notes of yellow melon, passion fruit, and green pear lead the way, followed by zesty lemon and lime. Subtler tones of apricot and white nectarine enrich the fruit profile. Floral elements—elderflower, acacia, lemon balm, and a soft touch of daisies—add elegance and complexity to the nose.

Palate:
On the palate, this Sauvignon Blanc Fumé delivers a beautiful interplay of power and finesse. Opulent, exotic fruit is lifted by smoky nuances—fresh oak, toasted nuts, and a subtle minerality. The creamy texture adds volume, while crisp acidity provides balance, lift, and a refreshing finish. A wine that is both expressive and refined, with remarkable aromatic persistence.

Finish:
Long and clean, leaving echoes of citrus zest, smoke, and soft floral notes.

Food Pairing Suggestions:

• Perfect Match: Salad of pear, dates, walnuts, and blue cheese – enhancing both the wine's creaminess and aromatics.
• Seafood Lovers: Pesto shrimp pasta or grilled scampi complement the wine’s smoky-fruity character.
• Vegetarian Pairing: Roasted cauliflower with tahini dressing or a lemon risotto.
