Adelaide Hills SAFive years ago this wine would never have happened. Indeed even now this wine is an absolute rarity - but its happening. A wine that sneaks under the $15 mark but blatantly shows off with the sort of bright snappy & clearly Savvy fruit flavours that should really (and usually do) weigh in for $20 a bottle.Make no mistakes Cheviot Bridge (the winery behind the Long Flat Regional range) are out to prove a point. With this wine they have taken juice that should be destined for a premium glossy packaged Savvy with a prestigious reputation & $25 pricetag. Yet this is sandwiched in a plainly packaged mystery white for half the price.Forget the label & this wine is simply the best value Adelaide Hills Sauv on the market. Ever.

National Post Weekly Micheal Vaughan'Pale straw in color there's good varietal character. Aromas are grassy with guava fruit and mineral tones. Crisp and clean...' Nat Decants Natalie Maclean
