TASTING NOTES
A fresh and floral Sauvignon Blanc with a zesty passionfruit and grapefruit
nose, the mid palate is wonderfully textured with citrus pith and a long
crisp finish. A perfect starter for a drink in the sun with friends.
“Tapping into the Adelaide Hills’ regional pop-star variety, this has all the expected vibrant tropical fruit aromatics"

Vineyard | The Adelaide Hills is located in the Mount Lofty Ranges, east of Adelaide. One of the largest geographical wine regions in Australia its diversity in terms of altitude, climate and soil helps to produce its distinctive cool climate wines. Machine harvested in the early hours of the morning, then crushed and drained through the press to retain the fresh, bright flavours.
FRESH
lightly-scented lemon and herb aroma, a trace of tobacco. The palate has good flavour and medium intensity, the finish soft and dry, clean and just a touch grippy"
