Captures the pungent, alert character inherent to Sauvignon Blanc. This is a peppy wine with spiky tropical and green-ruite aromas and flavors. It's a mash up of citrus and nettles, with a controlled, fairly long grapefruit-driven finish. Modest in price, but the real thing.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2008 Sauvignon Blanc reveals an enticing nose of fresh cut grass, mineral, and citrus. Vibrant, ripe, and intense, it has excellent balance and length. Drink it over the next 12-18 months.

For more than 25 years Veramonte has been recognized in Chile and worldwide for the consistent quality of its wines.
Veramonte produces distinctive wines that are expressions of their origins. The winery is located in Casablanca, and the original vineyards were situated in a valley in Casablanca that when planted in the late 1990s was unknown to the wine industry. Veramonte was the first to invest seriously in the area and the project expanded later into other valleys and brands, with vineyards in the renowned winemaking regions of Casablanca (perfect for whites and cool-climate reds) and Colchagua (warmer and ideal for red varietals).
Veramonte follows organic practices throughout their estate, with a number of the wines now being officially certified ‘Made with Organic Grapes’. These practices ensure optimum conditions for vine growth and that the vineyards are sustainable over time. Living, balanced soil produces quality grapes that express the fullest potential of the terroir.
