The 2023 Oates Ends The G.W.B is a fresh Margaret River white blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and a small portion of Chardonnay, inspired by the region's classic "Great White Blend" style. Sustainably grown and crafted with a light touch, it opens with vibrant aromas of passionfruit, lime, pear and citrus blossom, complemented by subtle notes of fresh herbs, light oak and a distinctive mineral freshness.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with lively natural acidity and a fine, textured mouthfeel. Bright citrus, tropical fruit and green apple flavours are balanced by the freshness of Semillon and the gentle creaminess contributed by a small portion of barrel-fermented Chardonnay. A crisp, dry finish with lingering mineral notes makes this an expressive and food-friendly Margaret River white. The wine is enjoyable now and will continue to drink beautifully over the next 5–8 years.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for customers who enjoy modern Margaret River white blends with freshness, texture and balance. Pair it with freshly shucked oysters, grilled prawns, pan-fried snapper, roast chicken or fresh goat's cheese. Best served well chilled and enjoyed now, with the potential to gain additional complexity over the next 5–8 years.
