An aromatic, award-winning Sauvignon-Semillon blend, hand-crafted by the team at The Lane Vineyard.

These Sauvignon grapes come from a tiny 1 hectare plot, carefully tended by viticulturalist, Marty Edwards. The amount of Semillon used can vary each year; this vintage is 72% Sauvignon and 28% Semillon. Layers of texture and minerality combine with aromatic grassy notes, fresh lime fruit and a creamy finish.

Gathering Sauvignon Semillon The Lane 2009

"Australia's definitive SBS, Gathering, manages to expertly tread the line between joyous aperitif and mind-bendingly complex food wine. The oak used here is so subtly employed that it is incredible and yet without it this wine would not have the wondrous amplitude that it does throughout. Mind-bending quality, unerring commitment and the result is that it leaves you feeling astonishingly violated." 3***

"A tour de force and a wine that has made me reevaluate the Sauvignon Blanc Semillon world!!!"

Matthew Jukes, Twitter.com (May 2011)

"Marty, and his irrepressible father John, make a fantastic, oyster and seafood-loving Sauvignon (The Gathering, with a splash of Semillon) very much in the style of an ebullient white Bordeaux. Sauvignon is the Wine Australia designated regional touchstone variety for Adelaide Hills."
