Winery review: This aromatic wine shows
lifted flavours of blackcurrant with underlying notes of wet stone and thyme.
The palate is elegant yet full with sufficient weight and texture, balanced by
a flinty minerality. This wine is a fantastic match with foods such as cheese
salad, poultry dishes and a wide range of seafood dishes including freshly
shucked natural oysters, prawns, green lip mussels and creamy scallops.
My review: This Sauvignon Blanc had a vegetal
nose, with green pepper and grassy scents and subtle mineral hints. On the
palate, the wine was light and acidic. The flavor profile was vegetal as well.
