Willow Bridge Estate Fumé Sauvignon Blanc
The level of refinement at Geographe’s top estate rises a notch with each passing season, and this year its premium wines are really taking on an interesting edge for the first time. This is an edgy, tangy and taut sauvignon, bringing the zesty energy of this variety under control with the creamy, textural notes of wild fermentation and oak barrel maturation on lees. The nutty, vanillin note of oak jostles with the lemon, lime zest, cut grass, lantana and gooseberries of its fruit, but will come into balance in time. Buy direct.
