Crying Vine Margaret River Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2010

A lip-smackingly fresh wine that presents a lovely kernel of sweet, summer fruits and all citrus peel.
Drink differently - thanks to forward thinking winemaker Luke Jolliffe who thinks differently!
This great Bordeaux blend hails from Western Australia - an area now loaded with some of Oz's most sought after boutique wines.

Winemaker, Luke, is a big Old World fan. And it shows in his steadfast will to reflect the refinement and elegance of the traditional European styles in his wines. He has taken the ne'er-perfected-in-Oz Bordeaux blend of Semillon and Sauvignon and used the very gentlest of handling to create a wine with a lovely textured feel and all of the exuberance of good, ole Antipodean sunshine. This is a wine of vitality to enjoy on its own, with friends.

This great Bordeaux blend hails from Western Australia and was populated by loaded hobbyists, typically doctors, in the 60s. Oh, how things have changed. It's now the uber-cool, boutique vineyard area of choice and home to loads of Australia's most sought after wines. Most of this evolution is driven by people, rather than anything fundamentally changing in the soil or the atmosphere, or methods used in the winery.
