This elegant Pinot Gris features aromas of honeydew, pear, vanilla and orange blossom, as well as flavours of ginger spice, nashi pear, citrus and quince, all of which are balanced by a zesty acid line.

RIPOSTE BY TIM KNAPPSTEIN The Katana Chardonnay, Adelaide Hills

Geoff Weaver has journeyed from the big end of town to a tiny, intimate pocket of the Adelaide Hills. From his role as chief winemaker for the Hardy group of companies, in 1992 he made the break from corporate winemaking to pursue his own dream on the Lenswood vineyard that he and wife Judith had started planting a decade earlier. Those vines, some of the oldest in the Hills, are really reaping the rewards of maturity. Tightly structured yet aromatically lifted wine but with a supple mid-palate and a fine, crisp finish. The nose is fresh and lively with a lifted aroma of lime blossom. The palate is fruity with a juicy zest and a fine mineral edge.

Ten months in French oak (30% new), the fruit from one of our highest yielding vintages is brilliant straw green in colour and displays light citrus aromas combined with white stonefruit and a wonderful creamy multi layered finish from extended time on lees. Excellent cellaring potential.

Founded in 2001 Mr. Riggs wine co. is headed by iconic South Australian winemaker Ben Riggs, here we introduce Mr. Riggs first Sauvignon Blanc, Woodside.The Adelaide Hills produces some of the best Sauvignon Blanc in Australia, the Woodside Sauvignon Blanc is no exception, crisp, bright and aromatic with tropical notes of passionfruit, melon and nashi pear.

Tasting Note: Bright and textured with notes of pear and white peach complemented by delicate floral notes.
