Details and technical informations about Weingut Leitgeb's Sauvignon Blanc Klassik.
Discover the grape variety: Calitor gris
Light, pale and lightly coloured whites and rosés with a pale golden to salmon colour, a light, low-alcohol palate and discreet aromas of white flowers, light red fruits and neutral notes. An easy-drinking profile. Now marginal, found only in ampelographic collections or with a few passionate growers in the Var. Grey-skinned mutation of Calitor, a traditional southern variety once widespread in Provence.
