Tasting Notes
We have five small plots on our farm of Sauvignon Blanc. All facing different aspects which create different ripening stages and flavours. This wine is a mix of macerated, straight press and a blend from these five small plots. This wine is incredible. Like everything from this site it is particularly mineral and deceptively concentrated but is anything but tropical. Open this and watch unfold very gracefully over five or six days - it's potentially the most stable young wine I've ever experienced - extraordinary, unmissable stuff. - Winery Note
Manon is the label for Tim Webber and Monique Millton, farmed from their high altitude vineyard in the Adelaide Hills. Tim and Mon have a strong belief in working with nature, and have implemented a number of different programs to support this. Everything in the vineyard is done by hand, following biodynamic principles, they have begun to gradually remove introduced flora, and replant with native vegetation, as well as encouraging native animals, such as kangaroos, who keep the grasses under control, but don't damage the soils through compaction.
A similar philosophy is utilised in the winery, with everything carried out slowly and without any additions. Bunches are harvested by hand, carefully sorted and then allowed to ferment naturally, with indigenous yeasts. Left to settle over the winter months, the wines are finally bottled unfined and unfiltered. These are natural wines - a pure expression of their site and fruit.
