2022 Skinnydip!

Skin Contact Sauvignon Blanc 

From the cooler eastern edge of the Margaret River region comes our crowd favourite Skinnydip! Two distinct blocks of Sauvignon Blanc were destemmed to open bins and fermented naturally on skins for 2 weeks, before basket-pressing was to aged barriques to finish fermentation. The wine was then matured for six months on light lees with regular stirring. Barrel blending took place in September prior to bottling unfined and unfiltered.

Bright golden straw appearance, and showing it’s cloudy side. Punchy aromas of spearmint, lemon myrtle and star anise lead the way, followed by a cornucopia of delight in lemongrass, jasmine tea, Thai mint, jelly baby, crushed coriander/cumin and kaffir lime leaf, and an overarching smell/feel of salty seaspray. There’s also a little smoky chorizo, and ham & pineapple pizza, for those inclined.

A textural palate showing lemon sorbet and sweet golden pineapple bathed in lime juice, juniper and anise. Gin & tonic anyone? Savoury and puckery, salty and citrus – refreshing and moreish.
