Multi award-winning - Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Our estate grown biodynamic sauvignon blanc was hand-picked, and gently pressed. The wine was then chilled and pressed into stainless steel tank before racking to vessel for fermentation. Half of the wine went through malolactic fermentation in oak barrels. The ten month maturation was in both large and small format oak, being a mix of new and seasoned barrels, prior to being bottled. 

This barrel-fermented sauvignon blanc boasts exceptional purity.  The experience is defined by a combination of stone fruits and green apple, with hints of cut grass and flint leaving a tingly trail in its wake. It’s both slippery and restrained, presenting a very pretty expression of sauvignon blanc.

Awards & Reviews:

Nick Ryan - The Weekend Australian - 95 points

"This is a serious sauvignon, tight & textural, a collection of citrus-drenched minerals.  Grasses must be abundant in the vineyard but they're not overt here.  Lemon rind and pith, some oyster shell and parmesan rind. Soursops and flint. A taut, fine shell grit finish." (October 2024)

Erin Larkin - Wine Advocate - 94 points

"The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc is biodynamically grown and Demeter certified and was hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed, fermented wild in a combination of amphora and large-format oak and matured for 10 months, with partial malolactic fermentation. On the nose, the wine leads with vanilla wafer and shaved fennel, green apple, cloth/cheese rind and a hint of licorice. The wine is textural and wide, with layered flavor and shapely phenolics stitched with saline threads of acidity. To make an international connection here, the wine is a convincing Graves-style Bordeaux blanc, yet it retains its sense of place in Margaret River via the fresh fruit and fine acidity. A superb effort, it's elegant in the extreme."

GOLD - Decanter World Wine Awards 2024

"Shining green grass and glistening orchard fruits with a pep of jalapeño pepper perfectly tamed by flinty toast and serious saline characters. Classy and clever." Decanter Judges comments.
