2006 Sauvignon Blanc

VINTAGE
A warm dry ripening period resulted in excellent fruit flavour development and acid balance of the wines, particularly in Sauvignon Blanc.

WINEMAKING
A cool, controlled fermentation and early bottling was carried out to ensure the classic Sauvignon Blanc flavours.

COLOUR
Pale straw in colour with a touch of green tinge hues.

BOUQUET
Very attractive fresh and lively aromas of citrus and lemon with a hint of passionfruit.

PALATE
Full fruit lime flavours with a soft, crisp finish.

SUGGESTED FOOD
Enjoy with lemon prawns, natural oysters fresh green salad.

CELLARING
A very attractive wine now, the 2006 sauvignon blanc has longevity and will reward careful cellaring up to 2008.
