Hillersden Fumé Blanc Reserve 2017 Chianti Classico resulting in a Champagne ofAbout this wine A textured, oak influenced Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough that balances bright acidity with layered complexity. Aromas of citrus blossom, papaya, grapefruit, and subtle green vegetal notes lead into a palate that is vibrant yet rounded, with creamy undertones from partial barrel fermentation.
