About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of Sauvignon BlancIndependent wineryPale straw with a green tinge. Lifted bouquet of lemon rind, lime and green apple with barrel fermentation restraining the herbaceous character of the fruit. Abundant guava, mango skin, and a mineral edge, with oak adding texture to the mid palate. Crunchy acidity adding precision, focus and length. Fermented and matured for 8 months in 100% French oak barriques (15% new), cellar over the next 4 years.

Passionfruit, feijoa varietal fruit aromas with a patina of cashew nut. the taste is delicate, refined and dry, with mouth-watering acidity and subtle grip. Drink now to six years.

Hand-picked, crushed, pressed to French barriques (15% new) for cultured yeast fermentation and 8 months maturation. High quality estate fruit, matched by skilled winemaking. This is a wine of real quality and stamina, its citrussy acidity driving the long palate and aftertaste.
