RRP (AUD)

A textured and powerful Sauvignon Blanc showing intense lemon, lime, green pear, hints of passionfruit and gooseberry and some vibrant lemon verbena herbal notes. The palate is dry, crisp and racy, balanced with a silky vanilla and cream note with punchy, zesty lemon, nectarine, sage and chalky, mineral notes through the long finish. Pair this with fried zucchini flowers stuffed with sage and mozzarella, or prawn, mango and avocado salad with a nuoc cham dressing.

Ageing: 74% French, 6% American oak, and 20?acia with 20% new, 33% one- and two-year-old, and 47% neutral barrels
