A warm and early vintage produced a crop of blemish free, flavoursome berries. In the Semillon, sun exposed berries displayed honey and fig characters while shaded bunches were traditionally grassy and citrus dominated. In the Sauvignon Blanc viticultural techniques used are tailored to natural variations in the soil types in our Sauvignon Blanc block. The aim is to provide varying canopy to fruit ratios, in order to capture the full range of flavours that Sauvignon Blanc grapes are known for - from herbal and grassy through to ripe tropical fruits. A small parcel of Muscadelle fruit is co-harvested with the Semillon to add a floral lift to the nose.
