It is about texture, tension and restraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSourced from two small organically certified parcels planted in 1996, this wine digs deep into the estate's unique clay-over-limestone soils. It is a serious expression of the variety that looks to the Old World rather than the New World for inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSimple winemaking here from winemaker Matt Holmes: handpicked, whole-bunch pressed and fermented in stainless steel and some older barrels. Crucially, it spends three months resting on lees, which builds a lovely waxy mouthfeel that coats the palate without weighing it down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpect savoury aromatics of hay, blackcurrant leaf and cut grass. The palate is driven by green apple and pear, with a distinct mineral thread and a steely, dry finish. Classic Bannockburn saltiness abides. It is focused, food-friendly and distinctly different to most Australian Sauvignons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"There's heaps of flavour on the palate before it finishes refreshing and long.
