Andrew Nugent grew up next door to the great historical wineworks at Penfolds Magill. He honed his craft as viticulturalist and vigneron amongst the illustrious wineries of old McLaren Vale. In the 1990s, Nugent planted new vines at Woodside along Bird In Hand Road, on the site of an ancient gold mine, a godsend of fortuitously fertile soils and magnificent mesoclimes for stellar quality Adelaide Hills wine. Bird In Hand have since amassed a breathtaking tally of international accolades for the unrivalled excellence of their superlative vintages, wonderfully small batch releases, with the magnificence of structure, seamlessness and immaculacy of fruit, to enthuse curio and cognescenti alike...

The mean gravelly soils and invigorating climes of Mount Barker of the Australian southwest, were identified during the 1960s by the world's leading viticulturalists, as a place uncannily similar to the great terroirs and clime of Bordeaux. The pioneering vines of Forest Hill were the first ever planted here, sired from rootstock of ancient Houghton clones, inaugurally vintaged by the illustrious Jack Mann in 1972. The Cabernet and Riesling of Forest Hill were promptly distinguished by multiple trophy victories and praised by gentleman James Halliday as the most remarkable wines to come out of the Australian west. Forest Hill have remained a source of the most profoundly structured, intensely focused, yet softly spoken range of wines. Powerful yet disciplined Cabernet, generously proportioned Malbec, august Chardonnay and mesmerising Riesling, all representing essential drinking and salient value, for every learned west coast gourmande in the..

The philosophy at Pascal Jolivet is to allow nature to take her course and permit the wine to make itself. The estate's three Sancerre vineyards are grown to three different terroirs, Les Caillottes is planted to very chalky soils, Les Terres Blanches is on calcareous soils, atop the highest hill in the west, the vines at Silex are grown to a mixture of limestone and flint. Every parcel from each vineyard is separately handled, wild natural yeasts initiate a long cool vinification in controlled fermenters, to enhance the character and charm of Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc. Upon completion, components are held on sedimentery lees for several months, infusing complexity while building structure and adding texture.
Bright straw hue. Clean, crisp nose of citrus and lemon flower, brine, wet stone and flint. A powerful palate in perfect balance, smooth linear fruit characters are defined by splendid minerality. A Sauvignon Blanc of remarkable richness, elegance and finesse, to match with trout almondine, grilled flounder or coquilles meuniere.
