Kittoch Lane Semillon Sauvignon 2006
Kittoch Lane is a mouthwatering combination of round Semillon and racy Sauvignon - the grapes behind Bordeaux’s finest whites. "It’s a traditional Bordeaux blend but we like to think we do it with more verve and with really fresh Aussie fruit flavours!", Sam Trimboli, Winemaker When Sam was making this wine all it lacked was a name … until one day wandering the vineyard Sam stumbled upon an old letterbox. Using a handful of grapes to clean away the grime the name Kittoch was revealed. Apparently the vineyard’s creek reminded a former Scottish owner of the creek which runs through the Kittoch Valley near Clyde! Herbaceous Semillon provides wonderful food-friendly weight and tropical fruit character, given a citrus zing by the Sauvignon. Pale gold with glints of green, orange blossom aroma and round flavours of lemon and honeydew melon. Crisp, refreshing and very long. Enjoy with calamari, grilled snapper or antipasti.
