Puddleduck 2024 Fumé Blanc

 

Darren and Jackie Brown started Puddleduck with a focus on sparkling wine (Bubbleduck) back in 2003 but now produce a full suite of table wines, nearly all of which are sold direct from their popular cellar door in the Coal River Valley just outside Hobart. This is a lovely choice for serving chilled on a summer day, a refreshing, nuanced fumé style that saw estate-grown sauvignon blanc grapes matured for six months in older French oak to add texture without detracting from the bright fruit. There is impressive vibrancy on offer here with lashings of tropical fruit flavours. Pair with a picnic, or fish and chips. $45. https://www.puddleduck.com.au/
