This intriguing interpretation of a sauvignon blanc dominant wine was introduced just a few years ago. I have loved it from the start. Has about 10 per cent semillon in it, but it is the savvy which really dominates. There are the usual tropical, guava and slightly passionfruit lemony characters of sauvignon blanc but then other secondary characters of spices and ginger emerge. Gets a little oak treatment which contributes to its slightly steely linear frame. This is one of the best yet.
