With a cooler vintage on our hands it was a game of patience with Semillon in 2023. We needed all the sunshine we could get to achieve the flavour ripeness we needed but that has allowed us to produce a semillon with generous mouth feel and delicious flavour.
Aromas of lemongrass, sherbet and lemon pith are showing on the nose with just a hint of pink musk to finish. While on the palate we see a more generous mouthfeel, a roundness to the finish but also with that tangy, citrus acidity we love about Semillon. Still a wine that is worthy of cellaring but more in the 5-7 year bracket than 10+. Enjoy drinking this wine until 2023.
What is the match? White fish is perfect. A simple citrus pan-fried snapper with a fresh rocket and parmesan salad drizzled with olive oil and lemon juice.
