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

Sweet white wine, made from sauvignon blanc (80 per cent), semillon (10 per cent), muscat of alexandria (5 per cent) and riesling (5 per cent) grapes infected with noble rot.

VINTAGE COMMENTS: One of the coolest years in the history of our winery. Great varietal flavour and wonderful balance. The season was relatively dry but at the end of the season we had just enough moisture to encourage the onset of botrytis.

TASTING NOTES: Golden yellow with some green tinge. Floral, spicy and tropical fruit aromas. Intense and luscious palate with a lively lift.
