[RETURN TO LIST OF WINES]
Lillypilly Estate 2006 Sauvignon Blanc Dry white wine, made from sauvignon blanc grapes. Straw colour with green tinge; gooseberry and tropical fruit; lively and fresh, finishing dry.
Sauvignon blanc is widely grown in France's Loire Valley and is proving to be one of Australia's most popular varieties, no doubt due to its ability to produce fresh, distinctive, easy-drinkingdry whites that are the perfect accompaniment to our climate and alfresco lifestyle. It is also one of the key varieties in Sauternes and Barsac, French districts renowned for their botrytised sweet white wines. We also encourage part of our sauvignon blanc vineyard to develop botrytis and it is an important component of our Noble range.
