Darling Sauvignon Blanc typically shows cool climate minerality and character. The vintage was later, due to cooler ripening conditions. The canopy also showed a lot of vigour, as we had very good winter rainfall and a cool ripening period. This Sauvignon Blanc will continue to develop and improve until 2010.
