Shaw & Smith Sauvignon Blanc Adelaide Hills 2023 750ml
Vibrant accents of guava, lemon drop, nettle and hedgerow. Good crunchy length, if not a bit tangy.

Winemaker Description
Shaw + Smith Sauvignon Blanc shows a pink grapefruit character, concentration and mid-palate texture, which reflect the carefully selected sites and hand harvesting during the small window of perfect ripeness.

(Vintage 2022) Erin Larkin writes: This is the benchmark for (tank fermented, pure) Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc. The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc has sweet green pea, green apple skins, juniper, rosemary, a hint of nashi pear and layers of jasmine tea and spice. This is, as usual, very fine and spicy, with purity and textural complexity side by side. Pear skin. Pretty. - Robert Parker Wine Advocate 93
(Vintage 2022) James Suckling writes: Very fresh nose with a wide spectrum of aromas, ranging from forthrightly grassy and fresh-basil notes to gooseberry, grapefruit and passion fruit, this is a juicy and elegant Adelaide Hills sauvignon blanc. Long, racy finish. Drink now. Screw cap. - James Suckling 93
