Winemaker Damian Hutton

Varieties Sauvignon Blanc 85% Semillon 15%

Colour Very pale straw with lime green hues.

Aroma A classic Western Australian blend that exhibits passionfruit and fresh citrus blossom aromas.

Palate Dry with a crisp, fresh and wonderfully lingering backbone of flavour. Passionfruit, citrus and snow pea are interwoven with a very small component of barrel fermented Semillon which contributes subtle, spicy oak flavours to the wine.

Vintage Notes The 2009 season was once again excellent for white grape varieties with even and moderate temperatures and no summer rain. The overall growing season was early and moderate producing  completely diseasefree fruit of optimal ripeness.

This wine is a blend of fruit from the Ferguson Valley in the Geographe region, Margaret River and the Great Southern regions of Western Australia.
