Domaine A Lady A Sauvignon Blanc 2020

Australia’s greatest Sauvignon Blanc, irrespective of style. Hedonistic and opulent, presumably full malo and aged in predominantly new French oak. That being said, the nose is incredibly expressive with exotic fruits of pineapple, pawpaw, kiwifruit, white peach and Jersey butter and cinnamon notes. Rich, medium to full bodied, the fruit is so powerful and deep, displaying great detail and control. Fresh and vibrant, with notes of grapefruit, preserved lime, dried apricot, gooseberry, lemon and pink lady apple. The oak’s discreet, integrated and absorbed by the sheer volume of fruit. Generous, with a gorgeous fluffy lanolin texture, and long silky close. Waters Wine Co

A slight decrease in the new oak used for Lady A continues to bear fruit, giving a warm vintage full opportunity to glow: a tropical, grassy nose— with hints of some creamy, bread-y lees character—still holds enough oak (cedar, vanilla) to balance well. The palate, as usual, is lush, broad and beautifully textured, with a bit of smoky, mid-palate flint and good acidity drawing into a long, baked-pineapple finish. Complex, ripe, and intense. Just how Lady A should be. – Domaine A
