A crisp, fruit forward style from Sauvignon Blanc harvested off the estate Whitehills vineyard in Tamar Valley.

The weight of flavour, perfect balance and refined complexity makes this an engaging foodie's wine, very ready to enjoy today alongside your favourite faire.
Sauvignon Blanc from individual blocks are assigned to pressing and barrel fermentation by merit. A variety of clones are planted, the unique blocks and rows of vine are managed individually to maximise fruit quality at each specific site. Aerial infrared photography is employed to identify variations which require irrigation and nutrition, practices which translate into good harvests in sound condition with full ripeness and excellent varietal definition. Following the crush, juices are run off skins immediately after pressing, then cold settled to remove solids. Components are treated to inoculation and fermentation under strict temperature controls to maximise retention of fruit flavours.
TASTING NOTES
Bright, pale lemon with hues of green. Fresh, appealing grassy and floral aromas with attractive riper notes of passionfruit, banana and other tropical fruits. Ripe, mouth filling fruit flavours of lime, passionfruit and gooseberry with plenty of mid-palate weight. A lovely zippy acidity to provide length and freshness on the finish, a fuller style of Sauvignon Blanc with more demanding flavours that are totally enjoyable and very easy to drink.

About Tamar Ridge Wines
Great wines are made in the vineyard and it is the exceptional fruit grown at the Kayena Vineyard that forms the cornerstone of the Tamar Ridge and Devil’s Corner range of wines
Located on the western banks of the Tamar River, 40 kilometres north of Launceston, the Kayena Vineyard is planted to a range of cool climate varieties including Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Riesling, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Employing state-of-the-art winemaking techniques, but with more than a few concessions to the traditional techniques that have served winemakers for centuries, our winemaking goal is to harness the pristine fruit characters the Kayena Vineyard produces, fashioning them into individual wine styles that speak of their cool origins.
