Tasting Notes

The wine is in the fresh, aromatic style quite familiar to those who know the region. 

Semillon Sauvignon Blanc is a Margaret River specialty with both varieties performing exceptionally well. The wonderful thing about Semillon in Margaret River is that it has its own distinctive regional expression. Most Australian Semillon expresses lime, citrus and lemon butter flavours but here in Margaret River the variety expresses itself with a distinctive grassiness that is similar and very  complimentary to the herbaceous characters of its blending partner Sauvignon Blanc. The trick is to get these greener, grassy, herbaceous flavours balanced with riper fruity elements which means that harvest dates are critical to the end result.

Semillon is the backbone of this wine and it excels in this region providing great flavour and a crisp acid structure. Sauvignon Blanc compliments Semillon perfectly contributing to the wines aromatics and providing a long zippy finish . The wine is in the fresh, aromatic style quite familiar to those who know the region and we are more than pleased with the additional flavour, not always seen.
