Production of the 0% Original Sauvignon Blanc - José Maria da Fonseca

The grapes for the 0% Original Sauvignon Blanc - José Maria da Fonseca come from selected sites in Portugal that lie close to the Atlantic Ocean. The climate there is characterized by mild winters, warm summers and cooling sea breezes. These conditions promote slow, even ripening of the Sauvignon Blanc grapes and preserve their fresh acid structure. The soils are mostly sandy to loamy, with mineral influences, which lends the wine clarity and precision.

Harvesting is done carefully, often during the cooler hours of the day. In this way, the delicate aromatics of the grape variety are preserved. After receiving the grapes, gentle pressing follows so that only the purest must moves on to further maturation. Controlled fermentation at low temperatures supports the intense development of pineapple, passion fruit and citrus notes. The fruit-driven style is largely created in this phase.

• Climatic influence: Atlantic breezes and moderately warm summers
• Soils: sandy to loamy, with a mineral character
• Harvest: carefully selected grapes, gently picked
• Maturation: temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks
• Stylistics: focus on freshness, aroma and clarity

After vinification, a special dealcoholization process follows. In the process, the fine aromatic spectrum of the Sauvignon Blanc grapes is largely preserved. Maturation in stainless steel tanks maintains freshness, purity and the crisp mouthfeel. Wood is not used so that no roasted or vanilla notes overlay the fruit. The cellar style of José Maria da Fonseca focuses on precision, varietal typicity and contemporary drinking pleasure without alcohol.
