3 Bottle Taster Pack – Sauvignon Blanc

This is a Sauvignon Blanc with lusciousness and complex aromatics.

It’s an interesting wine (in a good way), made from a single vineyard in Steels Creek (Northern Yarra) with a little skin contact and wild barrel ferment. The fruit for this wine was picked, crushed, then cloudy juice was fermented by wild yeasts in two 500L French oak barrels (50% new). Extended contact with yeast post-ferment has helped in giving this wine its generosity.

Think guava, gunflint and lime, finishing with oyster shell like saltiness. Delicious.

Made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc, the resulting wine, Le Clos, is elegant, pure and precise. Light and bright in texture, this fruity wine has juicy green fruits, sliced apple and a cut of grapefruit acidity. A herbal element is balanced by the warmer notes of apricots.

93 Points - James Suckling - "Pungent passion fruit and fragrant melon, Tahitian lime citrus, this really takes sauvignon to another place for Marlborough, exposing the edgy, exciting and minerally possibilities whilst embracing the rampant intensity of fruit. Great acid, mouth-watering from front to back. Drink now."
