- Colles Sauvignon Blanc 2017, Gross
Wines from the same manufacturer
Colles is a Sauvignon Blanc that we fully dedicate to its origin. Old winemakers in the region claim that it is reminiscent of the original Haloze Sauvignon Blancs: smoky, firm and enthralling. The origin-influenced style also underlines its name. Colles is derived from "Kolos" and means "hilly wine country".
Special features of origin:
The south facing parcel "Colles" is our vineyard with the steepest terraces. The vines are rooted almost directly on the rock due to the low opium topsoil. To make solid roots in the hard ground, we put the Sauvignon blanc vines into holes about 50cm deep, which we hollowed out with earth drills and filled with nutrient-rich organic humus.
