McHenry Hohnen Rocky Road Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2024, Margaret River, AUD $25
This is 78% sauvignon, 22% semillon. It’s undergone skin contact, fermentation on solids, and ageing in seasoned oak to bring complexity.
Light-medium yellow colour with a ripe passionfruit and mango, tropical fruit nose, very overt and in-your-face. A big flavoured, ripe and generous sauvignon blend that should win many fans. (Screwcap)
