3 Drops Sauvignon Blanc 2014
Grapey, brightly lit and translucent aromas of gooseberries, lychees and passionfruit with a hint of lemon and white flowers precede a round, juicy and generous palate that thins out marginally towards a slightly short finish. Lacks genuine shape and focus.

3 Drops
Led by its long-living, taut and steely Riesling, 3 Drops is an established small player at Mount Barker. Its 15 ha vineyard is adjacent to the company's olive grove, and each are watered as needed by the large wetlands located on the property. The 3 drops, being water, wine and olive oil, hold a special place at this family-owned estate. The vineyard is not open to the public. The 2016 Riesling shows typical leanness and focus in its youth.
