Grape Varietals & Region:A blend of Sauvignon Blanc & Semillon from Margaret River, Western Australia. The fruit was planted in the Cullen Vineyard in 1976

Taste Profile: This wine is pale straw in colour with green hues. On the nose, there are aromas of passion fruit, blossom, lime and mango. On the palate, flavours of citrus, lime, nettle and cut grass combine with notes of vanilla on the mid-palate. An intense yet elegant wine, with vibrant acidity, minerality and great texture.

Winemaking Process:Sourced from the Cullen Vineyard, the fruit was hand harvested on fruit and flower days of the biodynamic calendar. It was barrel-fermented using indigenous yeasts.45% of the Sauvignon Blanc was matured in French oak (75% new) for three months, adding complexity and depth to the wine. The Semillon component was crushed and pressed straight away, and then spent five months in French oak (55% new) prior to blending and bottling
