Elegant and expressive, delivering citrus, lime and tropical fruit flavours with precision.
A mix of creamy fruit, dried herbs and subtle mineral notes creates a more layered, sophisticated Sauvignon Blanc style.
🍈 Texture & Finish
Textural and finely structured, with a slightly chalky, mineral feel.
The finish is long and persistent, with citrus, flint and gentle herbal notes carrying through cleanly.
🍇 Overall Style
A modern Margaret River Sauvignon Blanc—complex, textural and refined.
Moves beyond simple fruit expression, offering depth, minerality and a more premium, food-friendly profile.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with grilled seafood, scallops, prawns or fresh oysters. Also excellent with goat’s cheese, herb-driven dishes and light Asian cuisine.
🥂 BBD Verdict
A standout Sauvignon Blanc that brings serious quality—texture, complexity and length well above the everyday style.
Perfect for mixed dozens where you want a premium white that overdelivers and shows a more sophisticated side of Margaret River.
