Winery/Brand: Martins Hill

 

The 2016 Martins Hill Sauvignon Blanc is a very pale youthful wine with lemon citrus aromas, a waft of guava & pineapple and a hint of fennel seed. At only 10.9% alcohol you'd expect the palate to be quite zesty and it is, with a good clean acid line, finishing dry with a little bit of bitterness that leaves your mouth watering. This wine shows great varietal aroma and palate.

As usual, hand picked by a group of friends, family and European visitors, commencing at dawn (14°C) and crushed before midday.

“Caring for your health…and the environment.”

 

 

The Story

Martins Hill Organic Wines is a NASAA certified organic vineyard, Organic Vigneron and owner Michael Sweeney planted the first vines in 1985, more vines were added to the vineyard in 2000. Over the past 3 years we have planted Riesling additional Pinot Noir and a Shiraz block has been planted on the slopes of the southwestern side of Martins Hill. These vines have all come from our library rows.
