- A Sauvvy of Sauv BlancRegular Price $145.00 $120.00Sometimes only a chilled glass of Sauv Blanc will do. So here’s six exceptional examples for you to have a crack at... from Margaret River, Pemberton and the Adelaide Hills. Oatley’s Margs SBS picked up a Trophy and golds at the Royal Adelaide Wine Show and offers a beguiling mix of passionfruit, lime zest, white pepper and greenery. Picardy’s Sauv Blanc Sem (85% SB) is superb, with crisp fruit and great texture. No surprises that it has picked up a 96. Three distinct clones of SB are used along with 2 different yeast strains. On opening it seems soft and delicate but as it airs, minerality, guava, lime, passionfruit and all manner of complexities emerge. The Chain of Ponds SB is crisp and offers a lovely mix of greenery and passionfruit. The Riposte, made by the Legendary Tim and Nick Knappstein is textural, succulent and pungent, a joy to drink. Howard are major growers in the Adelaide Hills and supply substantial quantities of fruit to what are arguably the two best known producers of SB in the region. This, their own bottling, is of course excellent too. Finally the Cape Jaffa SB is also lovely with tropical fruits, citrus and more are at play. Learn More

- The NO Sauv Blanc PackRegular Price $294.00 $199.00
We get it, not everyone wants to drink Sauv Blanc and even if you do, sometimes it’s nice to get into a pear-laden PG or a crisp and aromatic Rizza or perhaps something even more exotic! So here’s a pack with the Sauv Blancs banished! In their place, a stunning Riesling from Claymore leads the way, laden with citrus and mouthwatering acidity, plus apples and pears and a wonderfully creamy texture in the PG from Artis. Ted’s Place PG is dry and textural, with pear, ginger and apple aromas and flavours. Finally, the Dell’uva Albarino offers a palate packed with peach, lemons, green apples, spice and salinity. It is wonderful by itself and even better with seafood.
