A fine example of how well Sauvignon Blanc can perform in the Orange region.
A stony, flinty countenance is balanced by more luxe melon and passionfruit characters with plenty of lemony length. Nettles, herbs and cut grass are present, not overwhelming. Slightly tart acidity but it is neither sharp nor adjunct. A little textural nous seals the deal. 92
