James Halliday Review September 2011

Wine of the Week

2011 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc – 96 points

A 70/30% blend, 29% was barrel-fermented and spent two months in new French oak. The bouquet is fragrant and flowery, with passionfruit and citrus, the palate with great purity, line and length, grapefruit, oak and perfectly balanced acidity in a continuous stream of flavour carrying through to the aftertaste. Will develop superbly. Screwcap, 13% alc.
