Mitchell Harris Sauvignon Blanc Fume 2014

Sourced from the Peerick Vineyard vineyard at Moonambel. Wild fermented with some parcels sitting on skins for 2 weeks, then in French oak for 6 months.

Subtle citrus nose, with white flowers in a reticent form. Light dry palate has a little pineapple but also looks underpowered and a bit tinny.

Misses the mark and picked too early, if fresh. Others in my house liked it much more. Drink: 2015-2020. 16/20, 87/100

Details: 12%, Screwcap, $25, Sample
Would I buy it? No.

Wine

Andrew Graham
Almost 25 years ago I started working in a small bottleshop, largely to buy cheap beer. There, I met my first two loves - wine and craft beer, and they took over my life. Two decades later and I spend my days as a journalist, buyer, wine show judge, marketer and drinks industry consultant.
