Hewitson Madame M Blanc & Blanc 2022

Share

Take me, take me back to Spain and a warm afternoon around the Mediterranean. This delightfully fragrant white wine is an unusual blend of Muscat Blanc, Petits Grains and Sauvignon Blanc. The Muscat Blanc is from the Barossa where it has been growing for more than 170 years and the light lifted Savvy is from the Adelaide Hills. Nice crisp fresh palate with a little lemon butter and light honeydew melon. It screams to be drunk with some oysters or shellfish.
