Product Notes

Orin Swift Blank Stare wine is a unique expression from one of California's most respected winemakers. Pale gold in colour, this Sauvignon Blanc teases the senses with a fragrant bouquet of jasmine and boxwood. Rich notes of citrus, green apple and kiwi dominate its flavour profile, elevated by an undercurrent of fresh herbs and a subtle minerality. Vinted with careful ageing in French oak, it boasts a pleasing complexity and elegant finish. Enjoyed young or aged, its inviting brightness and depth make for an extraordinary tasting experience. This is a wine of elegance, sophistication and unexpected layers.

Tasting Notes

This wine is bursting with ripe peaches, passion fruit and grapefruit with touches of cedar, dried herbs and fresh straw. On the palate notes of fig and lemon zest are also prominent. This wine is generous in body with a beautifully refreshing acidity and long length. An exciting example of Sauvignon Blanc that is very different from it's French and Kiwi counterparts.
