Storm Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2024 from Tasmania’s Coal River/Nocton Vineyard is a bright, pale‑straw white with lively, grassy lift and plenty of crunchy fruit – a very classic cool‑climate Tassie take on Sauvignon Blanc. It’s built as a light‑bodied, refreshing style with enough flavour intensity to keep things interesting.

In the glass, expect fresh‑cut grass, gooseberry and ripe tropicals – passionfruit and grapefruit – alongside citrus, green apple and a light mineral streak. The palate is light and zippy, packed with passionfruit, gooseberry and citrus, crisp acidity and a clean, dry, very refreshing finish that lingers with lemon and green‑apple notes.

Food‑wise, Storm Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2024 is made for light meals – think oysters, prawns, simple grilled fish, fish‑and‑chips, summer salads and fresh goat’s cheese, where that crunchy acidity and herbaceous edge really sing. It’s also a great fridge‑door bottle for sunny afternoons and casual seafood or salad spreads, especially served well‑chilled.
