This wine has a pronounced and abundant floral bouquet intermingled ripe stone
fruits and very subtle oak undertones.
The fine linear acidity of this wine give an initial freshness on the palate. As the layers of flavour unfold, the power of the wine becomes noticeable. It starts to show a complexity
of flavours that are complemented by some oak maturation. The palate is quite rich, medium
bodied and mouth filling. It finishes with a dry by flavoursome and lingering mouthfeel.
As with all our fruit, the vines are grown with strict organic principles in mind and we maintain
healthy soils using microbiological strategies. The purity in the fruit is expressed in the quality
and flavour of the final product. The grapes are harvested in the cool of the night using the selec-
tive harvester. The Sauvignon Blanc block 20 is 5.1ha planted in 2003.
Premium Sauvignon Blanc grapes are allocated to the Fume’ blanc style, meaning the highest
quality Sauvignon Blanc grapes are allocated to barrel fermentation. Selected Sauvignon Blanc
grapes are picked and processed as usual, but the initial free run juice is sent to a combination of
new and old French oak barriques.
Medium straw.
