Information about "Thorne & Daughters Snakes & Ladders Sauvignon Blanc 2024"
These grapes, from 30-year-old vines on the West coast, are very complex and are vinified as simply as possible. From whole grape pressing to months of cool ageing in old oak barrels.
The Thorne & Daughters Snakes & Ladders Sauvignon Blanc captivates with aromas of blackcurrants, crushed bay leaves and nori, balanced by tropical fruits to create a very complex bouquet. On the palate, it is rich and structured, with gooseberry and prickly pear, underpinned by a salty acidity.
