- Vintage Notes
A warm and early La Niña season marked by high humidity, low rainfall and rapid ripening. A warmer-than-usual start to winter in 2024 shortened vine dormancy, reducing yields. The cooler south proved its worth once again, with careful vineyard management ensuring optimal flavour development and retention of natural acidity. The result? Wines with freshness, ripeness, structure and vibrant varietal expression.
- Vineyard Notes
Our Sauvignon Blanc vines are planted throughout our southern Margaret River vineyards with the majority planted at the Luminosa and Karridale vineyards. A multiple personality wine, it represents the uniqueness of each vineyard site while maintaining a defined Stella Bella style.
- Winemaking
Picked from our Karridale and Luminosa River vineyards, 90% of the individual batches were pressed to tank and the remainder was specifically selected for barrel fermentation and battonage. A careful mix of technique gives this wine a perfect balance of explosive varietal perfume, complex flavours, palate texture and refreshing natural acidity.
