"Hand-selected (how not?), but apart from this, vinification all directed to the successful capture of every skerrick of the considerable volume of varietal tropical fruit; has line, length and balance, ticking all the boxes along the way." 3/2015

94 Rich Cook - Wine Review Online

"A wishing clock is the white puffball of a flower of the dandelion plant, and this bottle of Wishing Clock will fulfill the dreams of your favorite Sauvignon Blanc lover. After a Best of Show award at the 2014 Sommelier Challenge, the roll continues with a Platinum Award at the 2015 San Diego International Wine Competition. Aromas of white peach, melon, mild gooseberry and a very light touch of sweet cut-grass lead to a crisp dry palate that adds lemon and wet stone to the flavors promised by the nose. It's long and refreshing, and a value at this price. 94 points" Rich Cook Jan 27, 2015

Product Description:

Distinctive lifted fresh nose of Sauvignon fruit purity, outrageous lift of grapefruit mixed with fragrant gooseberries. A burst of fresh, radiant almost incandescent scents of fizzing limes lemongrass, Thai mint and lemon rind. The palate is three dimensional with high impact, mouth-filling pithy grapefruit juice and fresh layers of mineral like flavour in the middle palate before a long zesty citrus tinged ‘juicy fruit’ finish.
