Ladbroke Grove Wines Coonawarra Estate Sauvignon Blanc 2019

Product Description

Winery Overview

Ladbroke Grove Wines, founded in 1982 in Coonawarra, was revitalised under John Cox and Marie Valenzuela who focused on producing varietal-driven wines with regional expression. The Coonawarra Estate range emphasizes premium cool-climate whites, in this case, capturing the vivid character of Coonawarra Sauvignon Blanc from the terra rossa region. 

Region & Vintage Conditions

Coonawarra’s famed terra rossa soil on limestone, combined with its cool maritime climate, creates ideal conditions for expressive white varieties. The 2019 vintage benefitted from consistent soil moisture and long, even ripening, producing vibrant Sauvignon Blanc with balanced freshness and expressive fruit. 

Winemaking

Crafted with a clean, modern style, grapes were gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel to preserve the wine’s bright aromatics and structural clarity. The emphasis is entirely on purity and varietal expression.
