WINEMAKING: The Sauvignon Blanc parcels were harvested when the fruit displayed 3 distinct flavour spectrums. The wine was fermented in three separate parcels with an early, mid and late pick. One of the parcels was wild fermented while the remaining 2 portions were seeded with yeast that we know produces excellent aromatics from our region. Our goal is to capture the excellent characteristics of this variety when fresh and lively.

REVIEWS & ACCOLADES:
“The fruit was harvested in three parcels and then blended prior to bottling. “A fruit driven wine where tropical fruits run riot. Think pineapple, grapefruit with touches of passionfruit and green apple. Clean through the mouth, there's good drive and a lick of phenolic grip. Quite a good drink. 91/100”
QWine, 2018

“Subtle passionfruit aromas on the bouquet with a nice elegant smooth palate without searing acidity on the long lingering finish. “OH SO DRINKABLE & MOREISH!!”
Wine Assist, Dan Traucki, 2018

"Cool climate Sauvignon Blanc on offer here. Carries the cut grass and tropical aromatics, by way of a suggestion of rock melon. Slight herbal inflections across the palate, drying, grippy and with a vein of acidity. Finishes well."
