About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of Semillon Sauvignon Blanc (SSB / SBS)Pairs well with SeafoodMargaret River, AustraliaThis wine is a wave of flavour and aroma that starts with a blast of fruit and spice, as preserved citrus, blackcurrant, custard apple, nectarine, sweet herbs, lemon verbena and vanilla pod detail the signature bouquet. The palate is a fusion of these many fruits, spices and herbs which are further shaped and refined by lemon curd creaminess and a dry mineral-flintiness, adding texture and dimension. A lively, soft lime zest embellishes the fine, chalk-like acidity to finish.

A Bordeaux white blend that the West Australians have made all their own, Sauvignon Blanc/Semillon combines the verve of the former with the mouthfeel of the latter. Plenty of leafy fresh herbs, fresh-cut grass, mixed with citrus, melon, apple fresh aromas attached to this Granite Ridge white. Smells like spring. It’s a busy wine to be sure with plenty of action on the palate amid racy acidity. Flavours evolve into quince, citrus, honeysuckle against a herbal background, enhanced by textural almond meal. It’s ready to go now but those who care to age it, won’t be disappointed. Drink: 2021-2025.
