Dog Point Vinyard Sauv Blanc

Winemaking -
Hand picked and whole bunch pressing of fruit prior to cold settling then fermentation. 85% of this wine is fermented using indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged for 4 months in stainless steel tanks then bottled without fining.

Colour - Pale straw. 

Aroma - Pure and bright perfume with an array of citrus covering grapefruit, lemon, lime and mandarin. Subtle gravelly tones help to weave another layer of complexity around the fruit. 

Palate - Juicy and fresh upfront, the riper fruit spectrum of stone fruit opens and offers an intense generosity of flavour. It follows through the mid-palate with a refreshing and quenching finish of crystalline acidity.

Cellaring - Drinks beautifully now or can comfortably be cellared for five years or more.
