2020 Crittenden Estate Peninsula Fume Blanc
This FUMÉ BLANC style is a beguiling wine that brings a new dimension to Sauvignon in our wine line up. Essentially it seeks to capture a smoky minerality with both texture and length, and in our view succeeds. Due to the use of only 10% new oak barrels the wood component is so subdued that it simply provides a background note to a very complex wine.
