$138.00 GST Included

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

At WOODSTOCK we believe the Adelaide Hills is one of the best spots in the world to grow Sauvignon Blanc. The cooler weather ensures great acids alongside the famous aromas that make Sauvignon Blanc such a popular variety around the world. The fruit for this wine comes off of one our great friends vineyards in the Northern Adelaide Hills, a stones throw from Eden Valley.

By picking the Sauvignon Blanc over a few days we were able to ensure excellent natural acids combined with the heady aromatics that can only be achieved by allowing the fruit to become completely ripe. On arrival to the winery the grapes were gently pressed and the free run juice only was fermented, with the temperature restricted to around 16 degrees Celsius to retain bright fruit flavours and aromas. Once primary fermentation was complete Malolactic fermentation was restricted and the wine bottled.

Showing both tropical and herbaceous notes of varietal purity. On the palate the wine is dry and balanced with refreshing acidic lift. Showing stone fruit (white nectarines), tropical fruit (passionfruit) and grassy notes. The WOODSTOCK Sauvignon Blanc will pair well with many dishes. The finish is medium in length. A refreshing style for early appreciation. Always serve chilled.

About Woodstock Wines

Woodstock Estate, established in 1905 by the Townsend family, has a rich legacy tied to its English roots. Named after the town of Woodstock near Blenheim Palace, the estate was first developed as a vineyard and orchard by the Townsend family, who built a homestead and cultivated the land until 1973. The Collett family then took ownership, expanding Woodstock with an adjoining vineyard acquired from Murray and Duclie Vick, caretakers of ancient Shiraz and Grenache vines dating back to the 1860s.

Today, Woodstock boasts some of the oldest vineyards in McLaren Vale, with the oldest vines planted in 1905. The Colletts have continued to enhance the estate, adding varietals such as Riesling, Cabernet Sauvignon, Mataro, Montepulciano, and Fiano. The estate’s vineyards are now certified sustainable, with many grapes dry-grown to suit the Mediterranean climate.

Woodstock’s winemaking process is meticulous, with optimal harvesting times chosen to preserve grape quality. Night harvesting, Italian crushers, and cold soaking for reds ensure wines of balanced intensity. Each stage, from immediate crushing to gentle fermentation, reflects Woodstock’s commitment to producing wines that honor the estate’s heritage and terroir.
