Warning

Under the Liquor Control Reform Act 1998 it is an offence to supply alcohol to a person under 18 years (penalty exceeds $25,000) and for a person under 18 years to purchase or receive alcohol (penalty exceeds $1,000).

Our Fumé Blanc was developed to take advantage of the wonderful aromatics associated with Sauvignon Blanc, whilst adding some additional texture, mouthfeel, and complexity using oak fermentation and barrel maturation. 

 

Classic Sauvignon Blanc tropical fruit aromas of loquat, guava, lychee and gooseberry combine with nuances of custard apple, juniper berry, coffee grind, talc and white florals, with beeswax and slate-like minerality adding complexity. On the palate, rich tropical fruit is complemented by a creamy vanilla slice texture, supported by a tight, bright line of lemony acidity to finish.

WINEMAKING NOTES

Grapes were whole bunch pressed directly to French oak puncheons and barriques (100% one-year-old) with a considered amount of solids maintained in the juice. Wild yeast fermentation followed together with natural malolactic fermentation. The wine was then left to mature on lees for 7 months in oak prior to blending and bottling.
