About this product
Dry, Light Bodied style of SemillonHunter Valley, AustraliaThe 2012 vintage brings classic Hunter Valley Semillon characteristics, including plenty of pale green tints and lifted grassy citrus characters on the aromas. Sweet fruit flavors initially on the palate with some Bickford lime cordial notes. Excellent acid structure, importantly balanced with the fruit, long carry on the finish as well. Perfect in its youth, will bottle age gracefully for those that want a mature style.

Light bodied white wines have a water-light mouthfeel. Often very pale to light colour.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Pale colour; fresh and backward. Very grassy on the nose. Crushed green leaves and green herbs. Cracked pea pods. The taste is very light, delicate and crisp with good intensity and drive, and a ramrod core of acidity. Good, albeit very much at the herbaceous end of Hunter semillon style.

Pale quartz; operates in strict compliance with the 'ain't broke, don't fix it' nostrum, its fragrant bouquet and lively palate with hallmark lemon/lemongrass/citrus lengthened by lively acidity.
