Wine Review - 3 1/2 Stars
2014 Oakdene Sauvignon Blanc

$21.00 bottle/$252.00 case
Wine Club Members 10% Discount

"The Bellarine Peninsula, south of Melbourne, is well tempered by the southern seas, which helps this pop star variety to settle down and gather a little more depth to its palate, here with notes of cinnamon spice sprinkled on nectarine, and brown-sugared grapefruit. For a bit more power again, the Jessica 2013 Sauvignon ($28) is a fuller, barrel fermented and matured style."
