The Wine
One taste of its super-crisp, citrus-packed flavours was enough for our man Down Under, Dan Parrott, to secure as much of this one-off parcel of wine that he could. You see, it's from the cool Adelaide Hills for starters – where top name like Nepenthe, Grosset, Shaw & Smith and Petaluma have vineyards and make the finest, dazzling fresh Sauvignon Blanc. What's more this 2015 comes from one of the region's top cellars, but it's a Cleanskin wine, so part of the great deal price is anonymity. What we can say is that bottles of fine Sauvignon from the Hills tend to go for £20+. Pure fruit, no oak, this 2015 dazzles with brilliant lemony, grassy and mineral character. Very moreish solo, but perfect too with spicy seafood or creamy white meats.
"I'm offered great deals, but this is one of the best. Terrific zesty freshness and herbaceous appeal"
