DESCRIPTION
The Tement Sauvignon Blanc Kalk & Kreide 2024 is a precise, mineral and deeply terroir-oriented white wine from the renowned Südsteiermark region, which clearly shows the signature of the Tement estate. As a Südsteiermark DAC regional wine, it embodies the winery's philosophy in its purist form - clear, taut and with an unmistakable origin. The name "Kalk & Kreide" says it all: the grapes come from sites with coral limestone, limestone and loamy limestone marl, which give this Sauvignon Blanc its cool minerality and characteristic aroma.
The vines are between 16 and 56 years old and therefore produce deeply rooted, concentrated grapes. After natural spontaneous fermentation, the wine is matured on the fine lees, both in stainless steel tanks and in large neutral wooden barrels. This two-track ageing process provides both texture and tension. The wine is sealed with a VinoLok glass cork - another quality feature that underlines its longevity and premium quality. Its ideal drinking age is between 2025 and 2035, whereby it will become increasingly complex and refined over the years.

Tasting notes:
In the glass, the Sauvignon Blanc is light yellow with a greenish tinge. The nose reveals a clear, cool aroma with fresh salted lemon, elderflower, local yellow fruit and fine notes of cassis. On the palate, the wine is mineral, straight as an arrow and taut, with a vibrant acidity that makes you want to take the next sip. Its salty freshness and precise expression of origin and grape variety make it Tement's signature wine - puristic, profound and animating.
Acidity: 5.9 g/l
Residual sugar: 1.6 g/l
The Tement Kalk & Kreide Sauvignon Blanc is an ideal partner for fish dishes, seafood, Asian vegetable cuisine or salads with citrus vinaigrette. It also impresses with grilled green asparagus, fresh goat's cheese or light summer dishes with its freshness, structure and complexity. An uncompromising Sauvignon Blanc with a profile of origin, elegance and ageing potential - for purists, wine lovers and anyone who wants to experience the essence of southern Styria in a glass.
