Mt Canobolas Fume Blanc 2019

Fume Blanc is a term use for wood aged/treated Sauvignon Blanc, made famous by the Sancerre wine region of France. Pale straw in colour with youthful green tints, the bouquet explodes with grassy and elegant distinctive Sauvignon Blanc and asparagus/passionfruit/lime characteristics with rich vanilla wood overtones. The intense herbaceous fruit dominates on the palate with soft tannin and vanilla wood characters. The flavour fills the mouth and has a long lingering finishing with clean crisp acidity typical of an elegant cold climate white wine. Crisp and sophisticated this full bodied wine would be an ideal aperitif or serve with its perfect food partner steamed asparagus or with fine cuisine such as freshly chucked oysters.
