This non-vintage wine comprises material from the 2022 (60%) and 2021 (40%) vintages. Savagnin was fermented in a neutral oak to create a base wine onto which three strains of flor yeast were introduced.

Bright, medium yellow colour with a flor-yeast bouquet that brings to mind dry sherry and Jura Vin Jaune. It seems fresh and youthful with floral, stone-fruit and creamy yeasty aromas, as well as the typical aldehyde flor character. In the mouth it is crisp and dry, medium-intense and has a soft/juicy texture that suggests sweetness, but it finishes cleanly dry. An interesting and novel wine that would be good with cooked-curd semi-hard cheeses. - 90 points, Huon Hooke

About the region

South Australia

South Australia grows more wine than any other Australian state, and its subregions behave almost like separate countries. Barossa and Eden Valley give Shiraz and Riesling, McLaren Vale leans to Grenache, Clare Valley to dry Riesling, Adelaide Hills to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, and Coonawarra to Cabernet on red terra rossa soil. Strict quarantine has kept phylloxera out, so some vineyards still work vines planted in the nineteenth century.
