The Regional Selections represent vineyard & varietal combinations which are recognised for excellence. The motivation is quality, and the result is a range of wines which are hand-made from specific vineyards to bring you the best of each growing region. Fruit for our Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from the cool climate Adelaide Hills where the high altitude (?400m) is especially favourable to this earlier ripening variety. Phil Lehmann limits skin contact on this wine to twelve hours to ensure a clean and crisp finish.
Appearance:Â pale yellow green.
Aroma:Â A steely fresh nose bursting with lime zest, gooseberry and pink grapefruit.
Palate:Â Clean and crisp palate showing all the classic notes of citrus, green apples and a vibrant limey acidity.
Summary:Â A well balanced Sauvignon Blanc highlighting all the trademark notes of the Adelaide Hills. Perfectly matched to fresh seafood dishes overlooking the beach on a hot day!
Awarded 92 points by the Halliday Wine Companion, who said “Pretty much all the descriptors you’d like to see are here; vibrant, snapping fresh aromas of nectarine, nettle and passionfruit. Juicy flavour, just a hint of fruit sweetness, and crisp acidity that does its job without imposing itself. Ticks the boxes.”
