2010 The Local Sauvignon Blanc
From Winemaker, Michael Sykes
This wine has a delicate apple blossom perfume, the palate is generous in fresh fruit character with zesty fresh lime and hints of passion fruit while having a clean dry chalky finish.
Vintage conditions
The Local is testament to the skill of the vigneron and careful site selection. The Western Branch vineyard as depicted on the label, is a sloping north facing patch of ground, with the vines planted into ancient weathered rock. The 2010 vintage was near perfect for Sauvignon Blanc, warm days and cool nights building perfumed aromatics and bright fruit acid
