Brightwater is from a tiny family estate our Buyer first visited in 2002, having noticed that famous Aussie wine writer James Halliday had reviewed their Sauvignon above Cloudy Bay. Their 2009 was also rated as 5 Stars by top Kiwi wine critic Bob Campbell MW. A classic match with goat's cheese, it's also just the ticket with seafood, especially oysters. Alternatively, enjoy as a refreshing glass on its own.

A superb WA classic from Five Red Star Howard Park, originally set up by John Wade and named in honour of his father, now part of Burch Family Wines, a founding member of Australia’s First Families of Wines. “No barrel fermentation or lees working, the two varieties having a close natural affinity with each other. Citrus and green pea marry with passionfruit and gooseberry, citrus the lead player. One of those wines made for consumption, not nerdy wine conversation... 91 points” (Halliday).

The making of Dragonfly Sauvignon Blanc Semillon centres on capturing the fresh and alluring tropical and seasonal fruit flavours from the region. A minute portion is fermented in French oak barriques to add a layer of intrigue to the wine. Enticing aromatics of passionfruit, tropical notes, kiwi fruit and lime zest. The palate is crisp and refreshing, having a depth of flavour, tropical spectrum, and a long fine finish.

Established as an offshoot of Miles from Nowhere in Margaret River, Small World is the fun, loud sister winery which debuted in 2021. Small World select their fruit from various sites in Western Australia, with a special focus on Margaret River by the coast and the Blackwood Valley further inland for this refreshing blend. Harvested in the cool of the night to retain freshness and acidity before it is slowly cold fermented in stainless steel. Lifted aromas of passionfruit, snow pea, honeydew melon and lemon are complemented by hints of dried herbs and fresh lemongrass. Crisp and clean palate with tropical fruit flavours balanced with a vibrant lemon citrus acidity. The perfect partner to seafood, spicy Asian dishes and white meats.

Zonte's Footstep has been on a quest to grow the world's best white varieties for more than a decade and this Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc fulfills this goal. Refreshing, tart flavours of citrus combine with gooseberry to create a tangy, mouth-watering finish. Exquisite, varietal and moreish.

A family owned and operated winery in Western Australia's glorious Margaret River wine region. Established in 2000, Knee Deep has an enviable reputation for crafting serious quality wines, but without the hefty price tags of some of their 'elite' neighbours. The ancient terroir, pure ocean breezes, and warm mild climate produce vintages of balance, complexity and quality, as clearly demonstrated in this juicy and admirable Sauvignon Blanc. Vibrant aromas of honeysuckle and mandarin before a palate of honeydew, citrus blossom and white peach flavours. 18% underwent fermentation in French oak, and was then left of lees for 5 months. The result? A creamy texture with hints of cashew, superbly balanced by a fine acid line drawing the wine through to a long, flavoursome finish. "… bright, vibrant and fresh... 91pts" (Erin Larkin, Halliday Wine Companion).

A must for refreshment in warmer weather, but delightful aperitifs throughout the year. This excellent collection includes beauties from Margaret River and the Adelaide Hills plus a star from New Zealand’s Marlborough and an impressive Chilean Gold medallist!
