DriftwoodArtifacts Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2018
About this product
A pristine, vibrant parcel of sauvignon blanc was harvested and gently pressed, going straight to barrel for wild fermentation with high solids, resulting in wonderfully textural elements. Batch fermentation followed using a range of yeast and cool temperatures to enhance varietal expression; the majority of sauvignon blanc and Semillon batches completed primary ferment in barrel.

Medium bodied white wines have a lightly textured mouthfeel with moderate flavour impact. Often pale lemon coloured to pale gold.

A 66/34% blend, one parcel wild-fermented with high solids in new French oak, most of the remainder completed fermentation in barrel, the picking extended from 23 Feb to 8 Mar, allowing different yeast and vinification pathways. A complex wine with a refreshing kick of lemony acidity on the finish.
