White Bear Sauvignon Blanc

Vintage Report

Cooler than usual April weather delayed budburst by two weeks but was followed by warm and dry flowering conditions, which led to excellent fruit sets. The growing season was steady and finished with warmer-than-normal temperatures. Excellent vine management, tight pruning regimes and irrigation control allowed the fruit to reach full ripeness. The whites are fresh, crisp and full-bodied with excellent balance.

Tasting Notes

Unoaked. Bursting with fruit and a touch of herbaceous zest. Wonderfully dry, crisp and refreshing.
