3 Drops Sauvignon Blanc 2025

Tasting Notes

• Colour: Light pale straw with glints of green.
• Aromatics: A lively bouquet of citrus blossom, guava, finger lime, gooseberry and passionfruit lifted by floral notes.
• Palate: Vibrant and finely textured – flavours of lychee, grapefruit zest and white nectarine weave through hints of lemongrass. A crisp line of acidity adds drive and freshness, with flinty complexity on the long, refreshing finish.

Winemaker’s Note

“The 2025 Sauvignon Blanc highlights the purity and natural elegance of the Great Southern. Harvested in the cool early morning, gently pressed and cool-fermented in stainless steel to retain delicate aromatics and minerality.” – Rob Diletti

I have been buying my wines from Kirk for about two years now and I have never had a bad experience or wine. I love the fact that the wines are all West Australian, so supporting local and lower carbon footprint. He delivers when it’s convenient for me and brings the wine to my door.  Wines are all good quality and well priced, especially the cleanskins. Highly recommended

I've been ordering from Partners in Wine for three years now - from the UK for my sister living in Perth. Each time they've been bang on with my order including  on time delivery. Kirk has also helped me select my wines from an extensive list.  A very pleasant and friendly company to deal with. I would highly recommend them.
