The Sauvignon Langhe DOC produced by the renowned Sordo winery is a white wine that encapsulates the excellence and rich winemaking traditions of Piedmont. This Sauvignon stands out for its remarkable balance between aromatic intensity and freshness, making it a pure expression of the terroir from which it originates.

The Sauvignon grapes, carefully selected, are cultivated on specific soils that impart distinctive characteristics to the wine. After the harvest, the grapes undergo a fermentation process in stainless steel tanks, maintaining the aromatic freshness typical of Sauvignon grapes. This methodology preserves the fragrant fruity and floral notes that make Sordo’s Sauvignon Langhe DOC such a distinctive wine.

On the nose, the wine reveals a rich and complex bouquet, with predominant notes of tropical fruit, peach, citrus, and a slight herbaceous touch that adds depth. On the palate, the lively acidity is beautifully balanced with a medium structure, giving the wine a pleasant persistence and a fresh, clean finish.

Ideal as an aperitif, this Sauvignon pairs wonderfully with fish dishes, seafood, and fresh cheeses. It is also an excellent choice for accompanying Asian cuisine, thanks to its ability to balance intense and spicy flavors.

Thus, Sordo’s Sauvignon Langhe DOC is not only a tribute to the grape variety but also a symbol of how modern oenology can renew tradition, making it a must-have for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
