Nose

A beautiful delicate bouquet of citrus blossom, pink grapefruit, lemon zest, green pineapple and jasmine florals.

Palate

A fresh and inviting front palate with flavours of grapefruit, granny smith apples and lemon citrus. The wine is medium bodied and dry with a satiating acidity reminiscent of the nearby ocean. The wine is fresh and vibrant and finishes with a succulent kiwi fruit spiciness.

Growing Conditions

The primary fruit for this wine was grown at the estate in Wilyabrup on 38-year-old Semillon vines. This was supplemented with Sauvignon Blanc grown in the cooler Karridale sub-region in the south of Margaret River.

Winemaking

To retain freshness and vitality this wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks at a cool temperature by selected yeasts. This year’s blend is 52% Semillon and 48% Sauvignon Blanc. We believe that our 2021 SSB is one of the best we have ever released.

Food Pairing

Enjoy chilled on a sunny afternoon or pair with fresh sushi, grilled prawns or a chicken salad.
