Item Description

The winner of this package will receive a 8 bottle pack of wine from Constellation Brands including 2 bottles each of Ruffino Orvieto Classico, Mouton Cadet Sauvignon Blanc, Kim Crawford: Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc (375 ml), Ruffino Unoaked Chardonnay.

About the Wine:

Ruffino Orvieto Classico: The Orvieto Classico wine is named after one of Umbria's most beautiful cities, located on a hilltop between Florence and Rome. This city is known for its magnificent dome. The taste is lightly sweet and smooth thanks to the balance between structure, acidity and fruity notes. The aftertaste is long and fragrant, with neat hits of fresh almond due to the chalky soil of the Orvieto production area.

Mouton Cadet Sauvignon Blanc: The wine has a clean, brilliant, pale gold colour and an ample, nicely open nose, mingling peachy fresh fruit aromas with more complex notes of toasted hazelnut and touches of dried apricot. From a full, substantial attack, the body fills out on powerful but elegant ripe summer fruit flavours, together with highly aromatic traces of white blossom (jasmine, honeysuckle).

Kim Crawford: Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc: A bouquet of citrus and tropical fruits backed by characteristic herbaceous notes that Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is famous for. An exuberant wine brimming with flavours of pineapple and stonefruit with a hint of herbaceousness. The finish is fresh and zesty.

Ruffino Unoaked Chardonnay: Brilliant straw yellow. The bouquet is inviting with its refined notes of meadow flowers that elegantly fade into fragrant notes of ripe golden apples, citrus fruits and bananas. The finish offers an elegant touch of bread crust, typical of Chardonnay refined on the lees. The taste is fragrant with hints of golden apple, sage and figs. Ruffino Unoaked Chardonnay is harmonious with its pleasant roundness well balanced by a lively freshness. The finish is very aromatic and persistent, reminding the orange peel.
