Not to be overly poetic, but the nose on Spottswoode
Sauvignon Blanc immediately conjured an image of a grandma line drying laundry on
a bright spring day while eating Pepperidge Farm Milano’s. Perhaps that’s a
little hyperbole, but this wine is unabashedly fresh, buoyant.
Starting with
aromas of fresh cut lemons and limes, on the palate there is quince, lemon
zest, lime, white peach, nectarine, a wee bit of vanilla and slight sweet
resin. The floral aromatics make this sing. In essence this is exactly what you
want a wine to do – to invite you someplace and whereas your invitation might
look different, this wine does indeed transport you.
