Fresh, lively, and packed with tropical flair, Normans Holbrooks Road Sauvignon Blanc captures the spirit of the Fleurieu Peninsula in every crisp sip. This expressive Australian white offers an invigorating burst of citrus and tropical fruit, making it an irresistible choice for warm days, seafood pairings, or simply when you crave something bright and refreshing.
In the glass, it shines with a pale straw colour accented by youthful green hues, hinting at the wine’s vibrant character. The nose is abundant with ripe pineapple, zesty citrus, and delicate undertones of gooseberry and passionfruit—a classic Sauvignon Blanc profile, yet uniquely fresh thanks to the region’s maritime influence.
Crafted from fruit harvested during the cool of night, this 2024 vintage benefited from an early pick due to a dry ripening season. The grapes were quickly crushed to preserve their freshness and clarity, and a specially selected Sauvignon Blanc yeast strain was used to highlight the fruit’s expressive character.
On the palate, this wine delivers immediate appeal with layers of tropical fruits and a clean citrus zing. Lemon and lime notes give it an energetic backbone, while the subtle gooseberry and passionfruit hints add complexity. The mouthfeel is smooth, with a refreshing natural acidity that lifts the finish and leaves a satisfying, lingering impression.
