The Wine Front – Rugged lookin soils and exposed-feeling site. Sauvignon blanc gets a salty tang here, says winemaker Francis Hutt. He likes it. About 60% is barrel fermented. He also makes the wine dry to enhance it. Cheers. Scents of wet slate, green herbs and briar, touch of asparagus but not overt. Tangy, tart, linear and very pure feeling. Great velocity. Mouthwatering and steely in the palate. Wow. The punch! Pretty bloody good.
About This Wine
A very aromatic Sauvignon Blanc. The wine has strong fragrances of lychee, gooseberry and passion-fruit. Initially textural on entry, in the mouth the wine leads into a broad wide acidity with flavours of gooseberry flowing through onto the finish.
