Descente Sauvignon Blanc

Pike & Joyce Descente Sauvignon Blanc is named after the French word for 'descent', referring to the steep slopes of Lenswood in the Adelaide Hills where the grapes are grown.

The fruit is handpicked, chilled and transported to the winery in the Clare Valley. Most of the juice is fermented in stainless steel, though a small portion – around 5% – is barrel fermented in older French oak.

Pale straw green, Pike & Joyce Descente Sauvignon Blanc has tropical fruit and citrus flavours with a clean acid line and subtle textural oak. Cellaring potential is two years.
