TASTING NOTES FOR Cherubino Sauvignon Blanc Pemberton Western Australia 2025
🍷 Appearance
Pale straw with bright green highlights. Vibrant and crystalline, reflecting its cool-climate Pemberton origins.
👃 Aromas
Striking and complex, with lifted notes of nettle, blackcurrant and citrus layered over mineral tones and a subtle oak-infused spice.
👅 Palate
Fresh and energetic, delivering citrus, green apple and kiwifruit with a crunchy vibrancy. Fruit purity is supported by a fine mineral backbone and subtle oak influence, adding depth without overpowering.
🍈 Texture & Finish
Textural yet precise, with a lightly creamy edge from oak fermentation balanced by bright acidity. The finish is long, clean and mineral-driven, with citrus and herbaceous notes lingering.
🍇 Overall Style
A sophisticated, Bordeaux-inspired Sauvignon Blanc—layered, textural and refined. Combines classic varietal freshness with subtle oak complexity, delivering a more premium, food-friendly expression of the style.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with oysters, grilled seafood, prawns or roast chicken. Also excellent with herb-driven dishes or creamy sauces where the wine’s texture shines.
🥂 BBD Verdict
A premium Sauvignon Blanc—fresh, complex and seriously impressive. A standout for mixed dozens when you want something a step above standard Savvy B, with real depth, structure and class.
