Philip Shaw No 19 Orange Sauvignon Blanc 2022 - 6 Bottles

WINERY INFORMATION:

Sauvignon Blanc is machine harvested as it enables us to pick at night when the fruit is coldest, as well and macerating the skins to allow for greater extraction of flavours. Once the fruit arrives at the winery it is pressed off its skins. We use a combination of wild and selected yeast strains for fermentation, of the different batches, to enhance varietal and complexed characteristics. Varying degrees of solids are introduced to the ferments to allow the development of more savoury flavours and improve mouthfeel. We use a fusion of old and new world techniques to create a more layered and complex expression of Sauvignon Blanc. The batches are blended to attain a balanced and harmonious wine.

TASTING NOTES:

The wine is light straw colour with a green hue. The nose is vibrant showing nashi pear, passionfruit and nettles. The palate is intense with fresh citrus fruit, bright acidity and layered complexities. The wine has sumptuous savoury elements entwined with fresh fruit making it a delicious drop.
