Sauvignon Blanc - 2005 - Alkoomi Wines
Ref: A209705
A fresh and crisp wine, which exhibits the attractive grassy and gunflint characters of this grape variety; ideal for current consumption.

The cool climate of the region is perfectly suited to the production of high quality Sauvignon Blanc grapes. The 2004 vintage has lovely herbal, citrus, guava aromas and flavours, with a fresh juicy palate finishing crisp and dry. Most attractive when young, this wine will develop well in the short term.

Alkoomi is owned by Merv and Judy Lange who are helped by their son and daughter, Wayne and Sandy, and their respective partners. The Langes were pioneers in the Frankland River region, having planted their first vineyards way back in 1971, with the first wines being made in 1976. The Alkoomi vineyards (105 hectares) are located only 50 miles inland from the Southern Ocean where there are ideal winter rains and dry ripening months. The hot summer days are cooled by fresh sea breezes, enabling the grapes to ripen slowly. The cool climate of Frankland River is ideally suited to the production of Sauvignon Blanc and this is a wine with lovely herbal, guava and citrus aromas and flavours, with a fresh juicy palate which finishes crisp and dry. It is one of Australia's finest Sauvignons.

The consistently superb varietal flavours across a wide range of Alkoomi wines have been recognised by the doyen of Australian wine writers, James Halliday, awarding Alkoomi a five star rating in his “Guide to the wines of Australia”.

Alkoomi’s annual production of about 80,000 cases is distributed to all parts of Australia and is exported to more than ten countries in Europe, North America and Asia.
