The 2021 Nautilus Sauvignon Blanc displays intense lifted aromas of blackcurrant, guava, ripe grapefruit and a hint of smoky flint. The palate introduces delightful citrus based mouth-watering intensity and finishes with a strong textural component.
Led by Head Winemaker Clive Jones for over 20 vintages, ‘Nautilus’ is an estate that put experience, knowledge and a thoughtful approach to winemaking at the forefront of what they do. They are of the belief that this approach has lead to the success and quality of the wines. An example of this was one of Clive’s reigning moments where ‘Nautilus’ created the first dedicated, gravity-flow Pinot Noir winery in the Southern Hemisphere in 2000. ‘Nautilus’ has incredible winemaking facilities too which means they have the ability to pick grapes when they like as opposed to being dictated by logistics. This means a great deal of control over what they get out of the grapes which is a monumental success.
