Shaw & Smith Sauvignon Blanc 2023
12% abv - 750ml Bottle - Adelaide, Australia
Established by winemaker Martin Shaw & Master of Wine Michael Hill Smith in 1989, vision is to make exciting, refined wines exclusively from Adelaide Hills that reflect Australia's sites & climate.
Shaw & Smith Sauvignon Blanc 2022 shows a typically pint grapefruit character, concentration & mid-palate texture, which reflect the carefully selected sites & hand harvesting during the small window of perfect ripeness.
The 2022 season started coll during flowering, which meant low yields for early budding varieties. The season was mostly mild & dry, but some well timed rain kept vines healthy for what was a later than normal harvest. 2022 is the 33rd vintage that Shaw & Smith has made, it has become known as a benchmark for Adelaide Hills, and Australian Sauvignon Blanc.
