Review
Ultimately refreshing with a lithe palate that has a gorgeous flow. It captures the essence of semillon with ethereal lemon scents and delicate honeydew flavours. Everything is perfectly in place – it is light, bright, soft and satisfying. Terrific value!

Tasting Profile

The fruit was crushed and pressed in the cool of the night to retain natural acidity and fresh aromatics. Crisp lemon and lime flavours.

palate

Fermented with a neutral yeast and bottled in early April to retain bright acidity and freshness. An excellent current vintage Semillon whilst still rewarding those who cellar.
