Winery & Vintage Info
Shaw + Smith Sauvignon Blanc was established by winemaker Martin Shaw and Master of Wine Michael Hill Smith back in 1989, the 2019 vintage was created by winemakers Adam Wadewitz and Martin Shaw. The vision was to make exciting, refined wines exclusively from the Adelaide Hills that reflect Shaw + Smith vineyard sites and climate.
Shaw + Smith own two vineyards in the Adelaide Hills, at Balhannah and Lenswood, totalling 55 hectares. The vineyards are planted to varieties that perform particularly well in the region, namely Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Shiraz.
The 2019 growing season was one that challenged even the most experienced and well equipped vignerons. Those that made the most of it produced small crops of very clean fruit with wonderful flavour and intensity. Natural acidity is a feature in all of the wines despite the warm dry summer.
The fruit for the 2019 vintage was sourced from Shaw + Smith estate vineyards at Balhannah and Lenswood, complemented by fruit from a small number of highly valued growers in the Adelaide Hills region. 2019 marks the 30th vintage that Shaw + Smith has made the highly acclaimed Sauvignon Blanc. The Sauvignon Blanc has always remained true to region and style, but is better now than at any time during the 30 years. Winery Notes
