Sunnycliff Estate Sauvignon Blanc Murray-Darling
Light and refreshing in style, it has flavours of fresh apples and lime with a crisp flinty finish. Sauvignon Blanc was picked in February and underwent a cool fermentation to preserve delicate aromas.
Sunnycliff Estate Shiraz Murray-Darling
Spicy red fruits with a smoky bacon character lead to a supple red wine which is quite light bodied. Red fruit flavours on the palate initially are contrasted with a savoury oaky finish. Shiraz was picked in March and fermented at moderate temperatures to achieve soft tannins. The wine was matured on a combination of French and American oak chips, giving it its smoky appeal.
Sunnycliff Estate Cabernet Sauvignon Murray-Darling
More weighty than the Shiraz, Sunnycliff Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 is medium bodied with some structure and depth. It has flavours of violets and black cherries with a soft smooth palate. Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were fermented in sweeping arm Potter fermenters – Australian tanks designed and named after Ron Potter. Also matured with French and American oak chips, the oak is less overt than the Shiraz.
