The Story

The sauvignon blanc pays tribute to the nearby historic Lenswood Coralinga homestead and apple orchards destroyed by bushfires in the early 1900s.Lenswood lies in the Adelaide Hills,the heart of the South Mount Lofty Ranges.At 550 metres Lenswood has higher rainfall and humidity at the right time of the year,cooler temperatures to retain high natural acidity and still enough sunshine to fully ripen the grapes. The exotic aromatic qualities of the sauvignon blanc reflect the suitability of this variety to the cool climate of the Adelaide Hills.
