2023 Estate Sauvignon Blanc. Another amazing Sauvignon Blanc from David, our winemaker. 2023 was a tricky vintage - floods in spring caused a lot of damage and high risk for disease. In the end a small crop of highly flavoured berries have created a wine with intense aromatics, a crisp fruity palate with lovely texture and length making this a delightful food wine - little fuller and softer than many Sauvignon Blancs.
Vegan Australia Certified
COLOUR
Clear, bright, pale gold with a subtle shimmer.
NOSE
Clean, primary aromas of lemon zest, freshly cut grass and green apple.
PALATE
Just picked tropical fruit with hints of lime and lemongrass lead to a citrus and passionfruit laden palate with a delightfully crisp lingering finish.
WINEMAKING
The wine is an assembly of free run juice harvest of several Loire Valley clones. Fermentation is long and cool being generally three weeks between 10 - 12 degrees to retain sincere aromatic and flavour expression. Typical Pyrenees Sauvignon character exhibited with its long lingering flavour length affording it to be paired with more robust food faire than is the norm for this wine variety.
FOOD PAIRING
Pan fried scallops, tempura, oyster's au naturel, lemon chicken with a rocket, nasturtium flower & sorrel salad.
VINTAGE NOTES
Budburst happened in mid-September 2022. The winter had been wet and mild with moderate to good rainfall. High levels of rainfall throughout spring and two major flood events (>100mm in 8 hours) on the 6th and 13th October resulted in saturated conditions that created downy mildew infections and restricted access to the vineyard making application of organic fungicide protection difficult. This resulted in some crop loss. Summer conditions proved to be considerably warmer than the last three years as the effects of La Niña eventually subsided. Normal cooler autumn conditions prevailed resulting in a high-quality vintage from varieties that survived the spring floods.
Wine Showcase - 94 points, plus 2 Silver & 2 Bronze.
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit - 93 points “Intensely aromatic, the wine shows Granny Smith apple, apricot, rockmelon and lemon zest notes on the nose. The palate is equally appealing with juicy fruit intensity combined with fine texture and lively acidity, leading to an exuberant finish.” At its best: now to 2027.
Unbelievable quality at a give-away price.
