Semillon Sauvignon Blanc
65% Semillon and 35% Sauvignon Blanc with the Semillon coming from the Mt Jagged Vineyard and the Sauvignon Blanc coming from a vineyard 2km South of Mt Jagged Vineyard. The wine is a very tight unwooded dry white that has very intense cool climate aromas and flavours. Tropical aromas of of gooseberries, limes and snow peas are continued on the palate with crisp dry flavours of green apples, lemons hints of asparagus with a long lingering finish.
Cellaring: Will reward 5-7 years.
Viticulture:Both blocks were hand pruned and shoots were positioned vertically with a small amount allowed to fall out similar to a Ballerina canopy. Harvesting occurred at night and cropped at approximately 2.5-3.5 tonnes per acre so flavours were not diluted.
Vinification: The two parcels were co-fermented in a stainless steel tank and bottled shortly after finishing fermentation to make as fresh a wine a possible.
