Shaw and Smith Sauvignon Blanc 2008
Adelaide Hills, Mount Lofty Ranges, Adelaide, South Australia, AustraliaThe '08 SB is intense to say the least with a rich aromatic scent from front to back. The style is very crisp, lip smacking if you and very food friendly. Shaw and Smith are closing in on 20 vintages and you can sense the maturity and confidence in this wine with its lean entry and intense un-oaked flavours of gooseberry, citrus rind and grassy chalky undercurrents. Prawns anyone.Tasted: 25 October 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $30.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Winspeer / Altovin |
