Mitchell Harris Sauvignon Blanc Fume 2014

Sourced from the Peerick Vineyard vineyard at Moonambel. Wild fermented with some parcels sitting on skins for 2 weeks, then in French oak for 6 months.

Subtle citrus nose, with white flowers in a reticent form. Light dry palate has a little pineapple but also looks underpowered and a bit tinny.

Misses the mark and picked too early, if fresh. Others in my house liked it much more. Drink: 2015-2020. 16/20, 87/100

Details: 12%, Screwcap, $25, Sample
Would I buy it? No.

About me – Andrew Graham

At 18 I started working in a small suburban bottleshop, largely to buy cheap beer. It was my first year of university, doing a degree that I didn't really like, and a liquor shop seemed like fun. Needless to say I discovered wine, my uni degree morphed into something completely different and wine/beer took over my life.

Almost twenty years later and I currently spend my days wearing many (wine) hats, mostly as a writer, presenter and marketer.

While wearing my writer cap I write features for the likes of National Liquor News, Gourmet Traveller WINE and the RAS plus I'm a Lifestyle FOOD channel wine expert. Read more about me here or get in touch to book your next wine event with me here.
