Lindemans Early Harvest Semillon Sauv Blanc
Early Harvest wines are created from selected parcels of flavour ripe grapes harvested from early ripening regions in South Eastern Australia. This fruit, coupled with careful winemaking, creates a uniquely refreshing wine which is at least 25% lighter in alcohol and calories. The fresh fruit flavours of Semillon and cut grass and lychee flavours of Sauvignon Blanc are balanced by the crisp dry finish, providing an easy drinking style of wine.
Jacob's Creek Cool Harvest Sauvignon Blanc
Jacob's Creek Cool Harvest Sauvignon Blanc was harvested in the middle of the cool night to capture the freshest flavours and acidity of the Sauvignon Blanc fruit. Fruit that is perfect for a light, crisp, summer style Sauv Blanc. Vintage conditions in 2011 were simply perfect for this style, with ample rain in the winter followed by long sunshine filled days during ripening. Long cool nights also helped deliver an intense and finely balanced fruit set tailored made for producing the best quality Sauvignon Blanc available. Lively and zesty on the nose and in the palate, Jacob's Creek Cool Harvest Sauv Blanc is destined to be a favourite this summer.

Tangled up in White
Way & Cat Cradle Series S.A. White Blend
Tempus Two Pinot Grigio
Made in the traditional Italian style, fruit was sourced predominantly from the Del Rios vineyard in Victoria and gently pressed using airbag presses and the resulting free run juice was then chilled to 4 degrees and filtered before fermentation. Post fermentation the wine was cold stabilised and lightly fined before being cold filtered ready for bottling. Tropical fruit and pear flavours and hints of citrus provide a fresh, clean, crisp style with a medium bodied palate. A delicate aroma of pear and passionfruit with floral undertone.
