The Lane Gathering Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2022 - 12 Bottles

Product Description

WINERY INFORMATION:

The Lane Vineyard in Adelaide Hills was established by John and Helen Edwards. It is perched at 400 meters above sea level, sits on ancient soils that have been eroded through the centuries from the Mount Lofty Ranges, and enjoys a Mediterranean climate with an average annual rainfall between 700 and 850 mm. The days are long and bright, while the nights are cold. This change in temperature retains natural acidity and structure in the wine. In total, The Lane Vineyard has 70 hectares of vineyard with 144,160 individual grapevines that have successfully produced 24,000 cases of wine.

TASTING NOTES:

The Lane Gathering Sauvignon Semillon is a 72% Sauvignon Blanc and 28% Semillon blend. The vines were planted on gravelly ancient soils with limestone, silicates and ferrous pebbles. It belongs to The Lane Vineyard’s Occasion Wines Series, their collection of complex and structured wines aged in fine French oak. With an alcohol level of 13%, it has a rich gold colour with a light green hue when swirled in the glass. It exudes a complex and lifted bouquet of lemon myrtle, kaffir lime, blackcurrant leaf and hints of oatmeal. The palate is a layered display of lychee, white peach, zesty citrus and minerality. It has excellent length and fine structure. This wine goes well with fish, seafood, salads and vegetable side dishes, although it can also be enjoyed on its own as an aperitif when chilled. This will age well within 10 years of careful cellaring.
