Zonte’s Footstep Excalibur Sauvignon Blanc 2024

This is a Savvy from the Adelaide Hills that won’t knock you around with, well, overt savviness. It delivers with admirable restraint, yet plenty is packed into an appealing palate. Bright lemon and grapefruit characters emerge while the subtle infusion of guava and gooseberry brings another layer of complexity. Fine friendly acid sustains the finish.
