Růstové vlastnosti

Sauvignon Blanc performs particularly well in sunny sites with good air circulation and well-drained soil. The variety’s aroma and wine style are strongly influenced by the growing climate: cooler conditions generally favour fresh acidity, citrus and herbal characteristics, while warmer conditions can produce riper, more tropical fruit aromas.

As a Vitis vinifera variety, appropriate vineyard management and plant protection are important, particularly under humid conditions. Regular pruning and good canopy management help maintain healthy fruit, balanced growth and optimal ripening.
