The Shy Pig Sauvignon Blanc 2024

The Shy Pig Sauvignon Blanc delivers a bright, dry and refreshingly straightforward flavour profile, bringing grapefruit, lime zest and honeydew melon together with crunchy green apple and a subtle grassy edge. Lively acidity keeps the palate crisp and clean, making it an easy choice for sunny afternoons, casual catch-ups or a midweek seafood dinner. The Shy Pig takes its name from a mischievous little character said to have caused trouble around the winery, and the wine shares some of that playful charm. Serve well chilled with fish tacos, grilled prawns, goat's cheese salad or vegetable fritters.

What the winery says:

The 2024 Sauvignon Blanc is pale straw with green hues. Lifted grapefruit and lime zest aromas are joined by honeydew melon and green apple, while the palate delivers racy citrus, crunchy Granny Smith apple and subtle grassy notes. The fruit was crushed, destemmed and gently pressed to retain flavour while limiting phenolic extraction. Cool fermentation between 13 and 18°C preserved the variety's fresh character, followed by maturation in stainless steel before blending, stabilisation and clarification. The wine is dry, sealed under screwcap and has 12.5% alcohol.
