Portillo Dulce Natural Sauvignon Blanc

A perfect balance of sweet and sour. This sweet Dulce Natural is the newest wine in Portillo's line and is made from the Sauvignon Blanc grape. It's a refreshing, medium-sweet Sauvignon Blanc with a light green-gold color. The natural sweetness of the Portillo Dulce Natural Sauvignon Blanc comes from stopping the wine's fermentation early.

Salentein produces a wide range of wines, including this Dulce Natural Sauvignon Blanc. Each wine is tailored to a specific need, from a dry white to a full-bodied red. This Portillo series takes its name from the historic mountain pass between the Andes and the Uco Valley in Argentina. The grapes are grown in the high-altitude vineyards of the Uco Valley in Mendoza. This is the only valley in this region with a cool climate, and the vines, which average thirty years old, benefit greatly from this.
