2025 Sauvignon Blanc

A$25.00

Made in the style of a French Loire Valley wine, this is a Sauvignon Blanc that will win you over, especially for those who don’t normally drink sav blanc.

Aromas of gooseberry, passionfruit and a touch of honey. The wine is dry with a fresh zap of acidity and a flickering of oak.

Vintage: 2025

Region: Tumbarumba 

Vineyard: Excelsior Peak

Variety: Sauvignon Blanc (100%)

Alcohol: 13%

Production: 165 cases

Reviews: The Real Review: Stuart Knox (SILVER 91)

Vinification: This wine is crafted in a fume blanc style meaning that it is fermented in old oak barrels. The grapes are the highest quality from Juliet Cullen's  Excelsior Peak Vineyard in Tumbarumba.

Food Matching: Wonderful for a summer picnic.

AWARDS AND REVIEWS

With a handful of silver awarded by the independent wine reviewers, this is one of the best value Sauvignon Blancs you’ll find.

What The Reviewers Are Saying

Winelines (Gilbert Labour) Silver

“It opens with a generous medley of fresh aromas and flavours channeling honeysuckle, lychees, Fuji apples and honey-on-toast on breathing.

The barrel-ferment component defines its 'Fume' description and it is reminiscent of Sancerre-style albeit with New World muscularity .

This young cool-climate Sauvignon Blanc from the Sapling Yard team is fulsome, palate-pleasing and crisply refreshing. It is an ideal summer wine worth trying.”

The Real Review (Stuart Knox) Silver

“Pale lemon hue. Candied peel and smoky hints on the nose. Medium weight, lemon curd, passionfruit pulp and a smoky caramel note that suggests some barrel work. Good length and texture, acidity guides it to a long finish with a drying fuzz completing it.”
