Fume Blanc
Jericho Adelaide Hills Fume Blanc 2025
Informed by the great wines of Pouilly Fumé, in the Loire Valley, this is Sauvignon Blanc done differently. Barrel fermented giving spice, complexity and texture, with fresh tropical fruit varietal characters.
Fermented in seasoned French oak, and held on lees for ten months with regular stirring, creating a complex and textural wine in perfect harmony with fresh tropical flavours and spice
Sourced from the Lockett vineyard in Kuitpo. The high altitude of the Kuitpo sub-region in the Southern Adelaide Hills is ideal for this variety, allowing slower ripening and giving complexity and elegance.
A versatile food wine. Fresh salads with aromatic herbs. Seafood; smoked salmon, grilled prawns and light fish. Cheese; Brie, Chèvre and Parmesan.
Drinking well now but has the potential to age for 5-7 years.
Alc/Vol:13.5%
