Coates Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc 2022 (6 Bottles) Adelaide Hills, South Australia

Light straw in colour, the nose shows restrained passion fruit accents accompanied by banana and a hint of stone fruit. A lithe palate with plenty of citrus zing with guava and subtle toast notes leading into a long, crisp finish. A restrained ‘Fume’ style was what we had in mind and the first step was picking in two tranches to obtain a high acid backbone from the first pick, and a later intake to provide fruit drive.
