Hewitson Lu Lu Sauvignon Blanc 2014
A juicy mouthfilling sauvignon blanc whose penetrative and lightly herbal bouquet of gooseberries lychees passionfruit and a hint of cassis precedes a plump juicy palate that moves over a fine dustiness with shape and smoothness towards a lingering finish of soft acidity

Winery
Hewitson
Dean Hewitson's wines reflect a technical stability and correctness plus a level of artisanship rare in Australian wine. His wines are so much more perfumed, restrained and elegant than most wines from the Barossa and McLaren vale, but deliver a lustrous intensity that only great vineyards can achieve. There's a true house style here, which is the envy of most small producers the world over. No wines reflect this better than the two mourvŹdres, each of which can produce a fragrance, purity and silkiness more commonly experienced with pinot noir.
