Made under the well awarded hand of Elena Brooks and Rosie Signer. Natural ferment and free run juice from press to tank.
Heirloom Vineyards, Sauvignon Blanc , Adelaide Hills, 2020
Highly floral. Spring time aromas (without the need for antihistamines) daffodil, fresh asparagus spear, light chalk dust, easy mandarin peel citrus/tropicals with a hint of richer passionfruit creme. Wound tighter than a watch. Beyond restrained, this is ratcheted to near breaking point. With buttercups and suggestions of lighter tropical and citrus fruits this drives home like a finger grinding into a breastbone with a minerally, almost saline, super tart, highly mouth watering finish. To be honest, I’d like a little more flesh on the bones.
