Fruit from the Piccadilly Valley and Lenswood, fermented in neutral French oak and tank, then aged on lees for six months. Consistently one of Australia’s highest-rated Sauvignon Blancs, the wine shows poise and tension with generous texture, while still reflecting two of the Adelaide Hills’ finest subregions.
