Floral notes and white summer fruit aromas, with expressive ripe fruit, invigorating acidity and a long finish.
This is a joint venture between Piero Masi, a Tuscan winemaker we first came across in the mid-1980s when he worked for Paolo De Marchi at Isole e Olena, and wine writer, producer and innovator Steven Spurrier, who founded the Wine Society of India on one of his frequent visits. They met through Kapil and Gaurav Sekhri, whose winery, Fratelli Vineyards, is based in Akluj (Maharashta), on the right bank of the Nira River about 170 kilometers south of Pune.
The varieties are destemmed and processed separately with both the Chardonnay and Sauvignon undergoing fermentation in stainless steel tanks at 14°C-18°C for 10 to 14 days with no malolactic fermentation allowed. The cool temperature and stainless steel tanks helped preserve the pristine fruit character. Following fermentation, the wine was blended prior to bottling.
Pale yellow with a hint of green in appearance, on the nose the wine has floral notes alongside white summer fruits. This is a medium bodied wine with expressive ripe fruit, invigorating acidity and a long finish.
Great all-rounder with white meats, fish and vegetables.
