Robert Parker (93)

The fruit for this 2022 Art Series Sauvignon Blanc was sourced from Block 17 on the estate. The wine is far more restrained and yet more powerful than the 2022 Siblings Sauvignon Blanc tasted beside it. The flavor draw across the palate is juicy and extended as it unfurls in the mouth, where you get blackberry bramble, snow pea, apple skin, leafy herbs, white tea and brine. Thirty percent of this cuvée was fermented in one-year-old Bordelais coopers. The reason for this is to highlight the phenolic tension. This is bolstered by very minimal yet still significant skin-contact time. The vines were originally planted to Shiraz in 1975 and grafted over to Sauvignon Blanc in 1981. The length of flavor in the mouth is impressive, certainly when considering the fact that it is restrained and insistent.

James Suckling (92)

A layered nose of white peaches, poppy seed, dried lime and white tea. Medium-bodied with sharp yet well-balanced acidity that compliments the fresh stone fruit palate. Persistent, pleasantly dry and mineral at the finish. A bit of herbs and flowers, too. A charmer. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
