Albany Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Wignalls Wines Sauvignon Blanc

Our 2023 Sauvignon Blanc shows a full spectrum of the primary fruit varietal characteristics of Albany’s Cool Maritime Climate. Sauvignon Blanc was driven by the appropriate ripeness of each individual block (4), and specific characters were significantly different for each block at Wignalls Albany vineyard.

This is a reflection of an extremely late budburst and mostly a rain free, and moderately warm temperatures experienced in 2023 which has led to fitting vintage in the Great Southern for fresh varietal whites. Cool ferments have retained the natural freshness and crispness of the fruit. The lees were stirred weekly (Batonnage) to gain mid weight complexity once in bottle.

Our Sauvignon Blanc shows intense overtones of snow pea and light citrus fruits and feijoa, with an underlying cool climate varietal herbaceousness, derived from aromas of nettles, snow peas, honey dew melon and fresh gooseberries.

100% Sauvignon Blanc, 100% Albany.

Wine Companion review:

A bold yet bright expression of the variety. Scents of cut grass, guava, asparagus and white pepper. Flavours vivid and zesty, lemon on green herbs with more guava and some lychee elements, licks of snow pea in tow. Good concentration in the palate, too, with juiciness tempered with pleasing, chalky pucker to finish. Great drinking, is the message.

Ray Jordan Wine:
93 Points

The interesting thing about this savvy from Albany is the use of lees stirring. A regular weekly program of lees stirring has built in texture, complexity and further richness to create a really attractive style that combines the natural zesty fruit freshness with an extra level of intrigue. Crisp and long palate with plenty of those snow pea gooseberry flavours.
