2023 ANNA’S SAUVIGNON BLANC
Passionfruit, citrus, and snow pea characters but toasty, spicy and textural too. Sauvignon Blanc grapes from two blocks in our Adelaide Hills vineyard were selectively harvested and whole bunch pressed. Malo-lactic fermentation, regular lees-stirring and an additional four months in old French oak barrels are critical to building the wine’s texture, complexity and softness – and a distinctive house style.
The 2023 vintage carries a sublime nose of lime and slate minerality, with just a hint of grass. It transitions to the signature creamy early tropical fruits of the Anna’s blocks on the palate, coupled with lemon-lime, soft grapefruit, and nuances of melon and white peach. The finish is lingering, with a touch of oil and lees balanced by a highly refreshing acidity.
