The soils in the region around the Tement winery are rich in a variety of mineral elements and slate deposits. These unique soil compositions give the wines a distinctive character and strong terroir influence. The calcareous clay soils provide excellent drainage and support the development of complex aromas in the grapes. The combination of rocky subsoil and a continental climate creates optimal conditions for cultivating Sauvignon Blanc and Morillon, which shape the unmistakable profile of Tement wines.
Sauvignon Blanc is a versatile white grape variety known for its vibrant aromas and characteristic freshness. Originally hailing from the Bordeaux region of France, it is now cultivated worldwide. Sauvignon Blanc wines are renowned for their notes of green grass, gooseberry, citrus fruits, and herbs. They can range from dry to semi-dry and are popular as refreshing aperitifs or as companions to seafood, salads, and light poultry dishes.
