Winemaker Notes
Clear pale white-gold with a rim edge that just hints viscosity. The minerals, granite and slate of place meet gooseberries and cucumber skin of fruit aromatics. Fresh green peppercorn and ozone. A rifled, spinning line of acidity pierces the entire palate, around which a more tactile and talcum yet creamy fruit quality persists; the back palate has a clean, rainwater mouthfeel and the after taste is ever so faintly spicy. Flavors of nettle and gooseberry return to make a balanced and complete glass of fresh white wine.
Whilst Sauvignon Blanc often lends itself so effortlessly to pert, fresh, spicy tastes of South East Asian foods-as this one will-the Wishing Clock has an extra dimension that also suits it to full-flavored and robust antipasto, to tapas, to the cold dishes and salads of the south of France, and to the most authentic representations of Mexican cuisine. Warmer weather only makes this white wine's versatility grow, particularly at luncheon.

Dandelion Vineyards are proven plantings that have stood the test of time. We grow our own grapes and source from the best of family vineyards. Our wish is to nurture the unique character of these vineyards and express their terroir in our wines.
We believe that to capture variety, vintage and vineyard requires an enlightened approach. Separating single sites, and even single soil types, vine by vine if need be.
Dandelion Vineyards is a unique fusion of vineyards and vignerons. Our wines represent decades of experience, blending the fruit of our heirloom vineyards with the finest traditions of artisan winemaking. Dandelion Vineyards combination of old vineyards and young winemaker and a couple of mates to help out in-between which we believe makes for the ideal winery.
