The name comes from the coastal town near to the vineyards, Las Cruces, where a ship was wrecked by a devastating storm at the end of the 19th Century. Three crosses were placed on the shore to mark the tragedy and to commemorate the dead. This label pays homage to that disaster.
La Leyenda de Las Cruces Sauvignon Blanc wine is a sensory delight! Pale yellow with green highlights. It shows intense aromas of pure pink grapefruit, peach and a herbaceous nettley character. The zesty palate is vibrant with lots of citrus and stone fruit flavours, crunchy texture and a delightful mouth-watering finish. Match with natural oysters with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
