Domaine A Lady A 2008 Sauvignon Blanc

The colour is a light straw, on the nose there is some fresh yellow fruits, apricot pop up then some yeasty lee’s and vanilla oak all humming nicely in tune. On the pallet there’s chewy oak up front (Oh yeah an oaked Sav/Blanc) Big in flavours of apricots, ripe peaches and bake pavlova with a nice touch of new French oak. Wow I say this is very Frenchy in style and doubt any one would pick it for a S/B in a blind tasting. I would love to drink it daily but above my budget, but is well worth it for a treat so I've put some in my cellar.
Domaine A is located in the Coal River Valley of Tasmania, www.domaine-a.com.au This wine is heading for iconic status due to its limited availability, uniqueness and its sheer beauty.
