d’Arenberg The Broken Fishplate Sauvignon Blanc

Pale straw in colour. The bouquet is lifted and expressive with tropical fruits dominating. Guava and passion fruit spring to mind. Along with the fruit there are underlying aromatic herb botanicals. The palate shows tropical fruits are joined by cumquat and candied limes and the crisp greenness is reminiscent of crunchy snow peas. Luscious yet focused with fresh mineral vibrancy that you get from cool climate Adelaide Hills fruit.

Since 1912 the Osborn family have tended vineyards in McLaren Vale, South Australia. Every vineyard has a personality which we encourage to flourish with minimal intervention in the vineyard and winery. Through time honoured techniques such as open fermentation, foot treading and basket pressing, this personality is allowed to shine. Harmony between environmental sustainability and wine industry practice is a strong commitment upheld at d'Arenberg, with the aim to pass on a sustainable business to the next generation. Today fourth generation family member, Chester, makes distinctive wines using traditional methods both in the vineyard and the winery.
