What to Expect

Sémillon is one of the grapes traditionally used to produce both dry and sweet white wines in Bordeaux. When bottled on its own the wine produced is rich and full with deep flavors of melon, fig, pineapple and apricot featuring gentle, earthy, spice tones and a subtle vegetal undercurrent.

Winemakers Notes

Winemaker's Tasting Notes

A wine from an excellent year for these two varieties.

The colour is fresh vibrant pale straw with lime green edges.

Fresh fruit flavours are dominated by the Sauvignon Blanc characters of freshly cut grass, tropical fruit, passionfruit and spice.

The clean and fresh palate is full bodied and luscious with soft sweet fruit and herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc flavours.

The finish is well balanced and clean with a lingering taste of gooseberries.
