Description
An anticipated release! What ho! Gosh, it feels like forever since the SBS was here. And a distinct personality, as always, for this wine, albeit in a different frame this release. Top flight, though. Sees a bit (eight hours for the sauvignon blanc) of skin contact and is barrel fermented, as always.
Tightly wound. Very. A pent up and structured release with bony acidity under just-ripe stone fruit, lemon, young almond characters and flinty, slate-like mineral characters in spades. Yum. It’s steely and taut, a racier expression of this stellar wine, and good for it in refreshment factor, scintillating freshness and detail. Love it. As complex and layered as other releases? Perhaps not, but it positions itself in a different frame here, if not more serious in a way, or at least destined for longer cellaring time or enjoying over extended time tucked away. Bonza. 96 points - Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
