While I enjoy the open-knit approaches to crafting semillon across the region, this remains the bulletproof benchmark. Even here, there have been endeavours toward greater accessibility, with some lees inflection. A meld of the finest dry-grown plots conferring a carapace of talc, sandy mineral and effusive acidity that is, to be frank, indomitable. Descriptives, ineffable. The length, justifiable. Bury this.

This semillon shows really subtle and attractive notes of honeysuckle, jasmine, cherry blossoms and white roses. A touch of pears and beeswax, too. Medium to full body, so much soft and round mouthfeel and good acid drive that cuts through it all. The acidity keeps this fresh right through to the mouth-filling finish. Drink now.
