Palliser Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2020
Dry to taste and medium-bodied, this wine is very fresh with bright and vibrant aromas of pungent passionfruit, with tropical fruit notes and fresh herbs. The aromatics are full and voluminous unfolding white florals and an array of green stonefruits and suggestions of minerals. Flows along a very fine-textured line with excellent energy, vibrancy and poise, leading to a long lingering finely textured finish. Back to Palliser Estate Wine

"Punchy, aromatic sauvignon blanc with tropical fruit, passionfruit, ripe nectarine and subtle crushed herb flavours supported by an appealing and ethereal texture. A bright, fresh wine with purity and a lingering finish." Bob Campbell MW
Lovely aromatics. Fresh, bright and vibrant, with voluminous notes of passionfruit, tropical fruits and hints of fresh herbs. White florals and an array of green stonefruits, with minerality flows into a very fine-textured mouthfeel, with excellent energy and poise, leading to a long, lingering, textured finish.
