Tasting Notes

Pale straw with fresh green highlights. Lime, ripe guava and passionfruit lead the aroma, followed by a subtle leafy, herbal note that brings freshness rather than overt grassiness. The palate is lively and fruit-driven, carrying tropical fruit and citrus through a crisp line of acidity. Dry and light-to-medium bodied, it finishes clean, bright and refreshing without any oakiness getting in the way.

Winemaking

Angove’s Sauvignon Blanc is handled with freshness firmly in mind. Grapes are harvested while cool, gently pressed and allowed to settle before the clear juice is fermented under temperature-controlled conditions. Stainless steel preserves the bright citrus, tropical fruit and herbal aromatics, while cold settling and light filtration before bottling keep the finished wine clean, crisp and fruit-focused.

Vineyard & Vintage

Angove Organic Sauvignon Blanc comes from South Australia, with the wine closely associated with the family’s certified organic Nanya Vineyard near Paringa in the Riverland. The vineyard is part of Angove’s longstanding organic program, where synthetic herbicides, fungicides and pesticides are avoided. The 2025 wine retains the familiar bright Sauvignon Blanc profile of citrus, guava and passionfruit, with lively acidity and a fresh herbal edge.

Why We Love It

This is Sauvignon Blanc for people who want freshness without an overload of grassy pungency. There is plenty of tropical fruit, but lime and crisp acidity keep everything lifted and clean. The certified organic and vegan credentials make it an easy bottle for a mixed table, while the price and uncomplicated freshness make it particularly useful to have chilled and ready to go.

Food Pairing

The lime, tropical fruit and bright acidity make this a natural partner for seafood, fresh herbs, crunchy vegetables and dishes with citrus, ginger or gentle chilli. It also has enough aromatic fruit to work beautifully with vibrant Vietnamese and Thai-inspired flavours.
