Spy Valley Sauvignon Blanc
Aromas of grapefruit, passionfruit, ripe red capsicum and a suggestion of cumin seeds.
Full, ripe and rich, the powerful fruit flavours are supported by a concentrated, fine structure.
Winemakers – Paul Bourgeois, Richelle Collier.
Predominantly early morning machine picked, gentle juice extraction, and inert gas pressing. Cool settled and mainly fermented in stainless steel tanks, around 8% natural fermentation in oak on solids
Pairs perfectly with seafood and salads and tomato, lemon and vinaigrette dressings.
A portion of this Sauvignon Blanc is fermented in oak barrels to give the wine secondary aromas, smoother texture and more complexity.
