While the label has changed from the old school, muscular hound, the wine keeps the same intent. 5% barrel fermentation and some lees stirring during winemaking for depth.

Longview, Whippet, Sauvignon Blanc, Adelaide Hills, 2025

Very pale lemon colour. Fragrant, but not pungent. Lemonade citrus, pink grapefruit, feijoa, citrus blossom, icing sugar, jalapeño, young cut spring asparagus and bramble. Runs racy through the front and the corners. While there’s a delicious, tart zesty close, there’s enough phenolic grip for intrigue and interest.
