Wignalls Sauvignon Blanc 2010
Winemakers Notes
Our 2010 Sauvignon Blanc shows a full spectrum of the primary fruit varietal characteristics of Albany’s Cool Maritime Climate. Overtones of tropical fruit, snow peas, nettles and some herbacousness.
2010 was an outstanding vintage in the Great Southern for fresh varietal whites. Cool ferments have retained the natural freshness and crispness of the fruit. The lees were stirred weekly (Batonnage) to gain mid weight luscious palate and complexity once in bottle.
Our Sauvignon Blanc shows intense flavours of passionfruit, tropical fruits and more snow peas, with an underlying cool climate varietal herbacousness on the nose.
