Tasting profile

Structure: light-bodied, high acidity, dry

Sauvignon Blanc in the cool Canberra District comes out somewhere between the Loire's restraint and Marlborough's exuberance — the altitude and cold nights preserve real acidity while the fruit ripens properly. Lemon and grapefruit with gooseberry, a cut-grass snap and a chalky mineral edge. Light-bodied, unoaked and bone dry, with a clean finish. Made to be drunk young and cold, and very good with anything from the sea.
