Riposte by Tim Knappstein The Foil Sauvignon Blanc 2013

Golden Bottle winner: Best male winemaker! Third generation vigneron Tim Knappstein, the highly awarded name behind Riposte, continues his stellar reputation with this Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc.
 
Varietal aromas of passionfruit and gooseberry with a subtle hint of smoke lead into a restrained yet intense palate with layers of citrus and tropical fruit, a slightly mealy texture and a hint of oak adding depth to the savoury finish.
