The 2025 42 Degrees South Sauvignon Blanc is a cool-climate Tasmanian Sauvignon Blanc that highlights freshness, aromatic lift and vibrant fruit purity. Produced from sustainably grown fruit sourced primarily from the Coal River Valley and surrounding southern Tasmanian vineyards, the wine reflects the long, slow ripening conditions that help preserve natural acidity and flavour definition. The nose is bright and expressive, revealing aromas of gooseberry, citrus and tropical fruit alongside fresh-cut herbs, pear and delicate floral notes.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with crisp acidity and a smooth, refreshing texture. Flavours of grapefruit, green apple and passionfruit are supported by subtle grassy notes and a fine mineral edge that carries freshness through the palate. The cool Tasmanian climate contributes lively acidity and clarity of fruit, while the wine’s softer texture keeps it balanced and approachable rather than sharply acidic. The finish is dry, clean and persistent with citrus-driven length and bright aromatic lift.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this Sauvignon Blanc is an excellent option for customers who enjoy fresh, vibrant cool-climate whites with bright fruit and crisp acidity. Particularly well suited to oysters, grilled prawns, fresh salads, sushi or light seafood pasta dishes. Best enjoyed well chilled while youthful and vibrant over the next 2–3 years.
