Hewitson Madame M 2023 (white blend)

67/33% muscat blanc à petits grains/sauvignon blanc. Lightly coloured with heady aromas of passionfruit, melon, grapefruit and apple fruit tones intermingling with hints of bath salts, crushed stone, jasmine, citrus zest and lemongrass. Swift of cadence with plenty of crunch and inherent drinkability. Great zesty drinking. 90 points, David Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion.

A wine inspired by those beautiful light and aromatic whites I so enjoyed on recent travels to the Mediterranean coasts of Spain and southern Italy, typically blends of the local varieties including Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains and Sauvignon Blanc. Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains has been growing in Barossa Valley for 170 years and our Old Fence Line block is about that old. With ever-changing consumer trends in
a crowded market place it seems so much sense to stick to our strengths and make this classic Mediterranean style at 11.0% alcohol in a light weight bottle. It ticks all
the boxes – Dean Hewitson.
