Pretty Sally Sauvignon Blanc - 2005(W-164)

Pretty Sally Sauvignon Blanc
Tangy, Zesty

Winery Story

Pretty Sally Estate was established in 1996 with a single mission: to produce world class wines that over-deliver. Its commitment to excelle... (more...)nce begins in the vineyard, as only exceptional grapes can produce great wines. Its focus is on detailed vineyard management coupled with expert winemaking. The location of their vineyard, 40 miles north of Melbourne in Central Victoria, was selected for its ideal soil and climatic conditions. its winemaking philosophy is one of minimal intervention, enabling the process to follow its natural course. John Ellis, Pretty Sally's winemaker, insists that the flavors be in the fruit in the first place. Nothing is added to affect flavors other than traditional fermentation and oak aging techniques.

Tasting Note

Pretty Sally's Sauvignon Blanc has an extraordinarily pure-fruit character. It is a very clean white wine, with crispness on the finish that... (more...) is always welcomed in a New World Sauvignon Blanc. Floral, pear, apple, and white peach aromas carry through to the palate with a softly crisp finish.

Tasted better as we went along. Not quite enough body, but might buy it again if we wanted a very light nice wine but there are others that are better...one of our current favorites is Steenberg Sauvigon Blanc from South Africa to give you a basis for comparison.

I like sauvignon blancs when they are crisp but not too sweet. Pretty Sally was a bit too sweet for me - and almost too heavy.
