Hewitson Madame M Blanc & Blanc 2024

Bottled in the new lighter containers – expect to see many more of these in coming years. The aim of this wine is to replicate the joy provided by a glass of refreshing vino, while relaxing by the Mediterranean. From the Adelaide region, this is 95% Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains and 5% Sauvignon Blanc. Estimates of the age of the Muscat vines are around 170 years. The wine comes in at a lowish, and more-ish, 11% alcohol. Pale straw, this has those alluring grapey aromas that are typical of good Muscat and this is textbook stuff. Throw in some exotic spicy notes, passionfruit, pineapple, lavender, Turkish Delight and musk. A wine of medium length, there is a clean, fresh finish. Attractive drinking now.
