Production of Let It Bee Sauvignon Blanc by Ethic Drinks The grapes for this wine come from selected parcels in Languedoc-Roussillon. There, pebbles, sand and calcareous soils meet abundant sunshine and a steady breeze. Sauvignon Blanc feels particularly at home in this climate. It develops intense citrus aromas and a crisp acidity that shapes its character. In the vineyard, the grape variety is the focus. The winemakers value ripe, aromatic grapes with firm skins and clean harvested fruit. Picking takes place at cool temperatures in the early morning hours. This preserves freshness and aroma in the grapes. Careful selection ensures that only perfectly ripe berries make it to the cellar. After arriving at the winery, the grapes are handled gently. First, they are destemmed. Then the cellar master determines the length of skin contact so that aromas can be extracted from the grape skins. This is followed by gentle pressing that releases only the clear must. Solids settle before fermentation begins. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Low fermentation temperatures preserve the fresh fruit and the typical citrus notes of Sauvignon Blanc. This is how the brilliant play of aromas of lime, lemon and grapefruit develops. The producer deliberately forgoes wood in order to preserve clarity, precision and freshness. After fermentation, the wine matures for a certain period on the fine lees. This provides a bit more fullness on the palate and lends the wine a delicate creaminess without losing its tautness. The lees also protect the delicate fruit and give the wine an additional dimension. Before bottling, gentle filtration ensures brilliance and purity. Ethic Dr...
