Small Wonder Landscape Series Tasmania Sauvignon Blanc
Refresh yourself with a beautifully breezy, Tassie organic Sauvignon alive with tang and energy, from Tamar Valley's Small Wonder winery, set up in 2020, and certified organic in 2022. This is fruit-forward and very fresh, with appealing gooseberry flavours and herbal nuances with a note of ginger. Small Wonder came into being in 2020 on the site of the old Goaty Hill winery in the Tamar Valley. Viticulturalist Wayne Nunn and consultant Dylan Grigg oversaw the transformation to Organic certification in 2022, and the building of a state-of-the-art winery in 2024. Today winemaker Ockie Myburgh is at the helm. The Small Wonder website notes: “ Old vine Sauvignon Blanc in Tasmania is underrated. These vines struggle on the granite soils and have meagre yields but produce something extraordinary at this site.
