The Ponting "First Session" is a fresh and floral Sauvignon Blanc with a zesty passionfruit and grapefruit nose, the mid palate is wonderfully textured with citrus pith and a long crisp palate. A perfect starter for a drink in the sun with friends.
"The first session of a test match was extra special to me. A chance to pull on the baggy green with ten of my mates and come together as one." - Ricky Ponting
"Fresh, bright and aromatic, a perfect starter for a drink in the sun with friends." - Ben Riggs
The Adelaide Hills is the premier region for Sauvignon Blanc. One of the largest geographical wine regions in Australia its diversity in terms of altitude, climate and soil helps it produce its distinctive cool climate wines.
92 Points Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
"This does a lot of things well. Intense fruitiness, crisp texture, a touch of grassy-herbal character, a seriously zingy splash of acidity. It’s fragrant, ultra clean, just that touch chalky in a good way. It shouts out its refreshment credentials while easing into the comfy armchair of ‘classic’ sauvignon blanc characters. A touch minerally? It’s a charmer in its line and length way."
Highly Rated Huon Hooke, The Real Review
Cut-grass and green herbiage aromas, some stalky notes. Clean and well-made. Crisp, tangy, dry palate, with lively acidity and some tension. Moderate length, clean and appetising finish.
