White Wines

Botobolar's commitment to minimum input during the winemaking process is exemplified by these four white wines. All are made in a low-preservative style, they contain approx 40-60% less sulphur dioxide, added as an anti-oxidant, than most commercial white wines. These wines are recommended for everyday drinking for those who suffer mildly from allergies. All wines are suitable for medium term cellaring.
