Tasting Note

A vibrant example of Sauvignon Blanc showing a glorious medley of ripe aromas - passionfruit, persimmon, pear, honeysuckle and a hint of rub... (more...)y grapefruit. It is rich and finely textured, with great drive through the palate. As wine-writer Tyson Stelzer noted last year "Helen Masters' ideal sauvignon is neither herbaceous nor tropical, but strikes a balance in between." In 2009 we enjoyed an excellent, very even fruit set and chose to crop thin well before harvest in order to achieve the flavour concentration and weight that we're after. There is huge attention to detail in the vineyard throughout the season.... *Notes from the winery 2009*
