Another triumph for Hungerford Hill's Bryan Currie.The estate situated in the Hunter Valley also uses fruit from cool climate regions, Hilltops and Tumbarumba. "It’s taken a long time to get my head around Tumbarumba wine – it’s a truly unique place" says Bryan. This Sauvignon proves he's got his head brilliantly around the potential of the region.
"The colour might be pale straw but the aromas are as vibrant as they come: bursting with passionfruit, crisp pear and tropical fruits. Grassy notes and some green pepper add more savoury tones, while the palate is full of tropical fruits, honey and gooseberry too. The acidity keeps it fresh and moreish, leading to a lingering finish." (John Lehmann, The Australian).
