The soils in the region around the Tement winery are characterized by a variety of mineral elements and slate deposits. These unique soil compositions give the wines a distinctive character and a strong expression of terroir. The calcareous clay soils provide excellent drainage and promote the development of complex aromas in the grapes. The combination of rocky subsoil and a continental climate creates optimal conditions for the cultivation of 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 from the Bordeaux region of France, it is now grown 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.
