2021 Passel Estate Sauvignon Blanc

Passel Estate2021 Passel Estate Sauvignon Blanc

2021 Sauvignon Blanc

Margaret River, Western Australia

Lemongrass, stone fruits and lime leaf, bolstered by subtle French oak, a textural palate with a long finish.

From $47.00 per bottle

    Description

    Tasting Notes: Lifted aromas of lemon grass and gooseberries gradually move to a deeper foundation of lychee, red currants and meringue. A textural palate from start to finish, starting with flavours of white pear and honey suckle and finishing with nectarines, apricot blossom and lime leaf. Drink now for freshness or be rewarded with cellaring.

    Winemaking Notes: Our Sauvignon Blanc fruit was harvested in the early hours of the morning and immediately cold crushed to press, where the juice was separated from the skin. The juice was cold settled for 2-3 days before being racked and fermented in stainless steel and new French oak barrels (20%). The oaked portion was combined with the portion in stainless steel after fermentation, where the wine was matured on the fine lees with bâttonage occurring fortnightly for 5 months. The wine received a light fining prior to filtration and was then bottled with all-natural acidity.

    "This is an exquisite savvy that gets a little oak treatment to add another layer of texture and rich mouth feel. Yet, it retains all that bright fresh gooseberry, nettle-like fruit that skips across the palate to a long crunchy finish."

    "Incredibly bright and lifted aromatics with taut guava, honeydew and juicy citrus blossom. Super racy and fresh with a subtle, salty margarita vibe. There is a vibrancy and purity to the fruit which elevates the seriousness of this wine. Rather delicious."

    "Wow, that's good – there's a flinty, reduced note here. Excellent guava and lemon-juice fruit, none of the candied character of Marlborough or Napa. Tastes like it has leesiness and/or oak involved (there is barrel fermentation, in fact, in 20% new oak – after which, the barrels are used for Cabernet Sauvignon)."
