- A simple, uncomplicated and refreshing wine at a ridiculously low Angel price - this is certainly one to stock up the summer fridge with!
Best before
Sauvignon Blanc has a lively freshness which makes it a good drink now as a youngster. Being a cool climate Sav Blanc it will also build in richness, and develop a grassy asparagus note with just a little age. It will be enjoyable until early 2018.
Serving advice
No need to decant or let the wine breath, just leave it in the fridge for a couple of hours to cool down, then enjoy!
Food match
Great with lighter seafood and salad based dishes, but perhaps food is optional with this wine – drink it in the sunshine!
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Sam Plunkett
- Winemaking legend Sam sources grapes from the family vineyard in the Strathbogie ranges of Central Victoria. Winemakers don't come much more in love with their job than him - he'd "happily spend everyday around tanks, barrels, stainless steel toys and wine".
He’s had a meteoric rise from self-taught winemaker to a multi award-winner and even has his own cellar door now! His winery was recently recognised as one of the Top 10 Dark Horse wineries in James Halliday's 2021 Awards.
The backing of thousands of Naked Angels has helped pave the way for Sam to continue making the great wine he loves, exclusively for you!
