Adam's single vineyard Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc ramps up the fruity flavour
-
Aussie superstar Adam Barton’s latest creation is a mouthwateringly fruity Sauvignon Blanc made using grapes from a prime single vineyard site in the historic Adelaide Hills.
-
Here’s what Adam says about the vineyard location, and why it really ramps up the flavours in this wine… “sourced from a vineyard near the town of Lobethal in the cool climate Adelaide Hills region, the Sauvignon Blanc is grown in sandy loam soils on east and south facing slopes resulting in grapes with aromatic fruit and fine acidity.”
-
On the nose it’s bright and aromatic, with hints of freshly cut grass and citrusy kaffir lime. The palate is crisp and refreshing, with ripe fruity flavours of melon, gooseberry, and honeysuckle, with fine acidity and a touch of minerality. It’s the perfect summery white to see in those long, sunny evenings, chilling out on the patio, even better if you pair it with a nice crispy, flaky fish fillet too. Yum!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Adam Barton
-
Adam first got into winemaking in 2001 and after a few years of hard graft for iconic brands like Wynns Coonawarra and Bonny Doon in the USA and Oz, he finally took the leap to go it alone in 2008. On his own, he made some absolutely stellar wines that got rave reviews from the critics and his new set-up was even named one of the Top 10 Best New Wineries by legendary Aussie wine boff James Halliday.
-
Then in 2012, Adam heard about Naked Wines and our mission to shake-up the wine industry. And the more he heard about how we work and our lovely Angels, the more he wanted to be a part of it. He popped us an email and the rest is history... since going Naked, Adam’s career has gone from strength to strength and he now wows over 300,000 UK Angels with top-quality exclusive wines. He’s eternally grateful for your support.

The reason Adam’s kit is so special is because of his attention to detail. He learned early on that to make the best kit you need the best fruit and that means knowing the vineyard intimately. Every single grape he uses is either from his own vineyard or from the close-knit family of local growers he’s worked with for over 10 years.
