Tasting Notes:
| COMMENTS: |
A lightly oaked style, this wine has honey
dew melon, cut grass, vanilla bean and
toasty oak notes. The highlight of this
wine is the intensity of fruit and balance.
The palate has added complexities of
cashew nuts and American oak and a
creamy influence from lees aging. |
| COLOUR: |
Pale straw, green edges. |
| NOSE: |
Cut grass, toasty oak, honeydew melon
and citrus. |
| PALATE: |
Good weight and balance. Good acid
length. |
| CUISINE: |
Semillon is perfect when paired with
grilled or barbecued chicken & fish,
prawns and most seafood dishes as
well as sharp tangy citrus sauces. |
