winemaker's notes:

Semillon has found a natural home in the Barossa. One of the very first white wine grape varieties planted by the first settlers, the Barossa is now blessed with a rich heritage of old, low yielding Semillon vineyards.

Color: Vibrant pale straw with green tinges

Bouquet: Clean-cut aromas of lemon flower, hints of grapefruit and bees wax.

Palate: A very elegant and delicate Semillon with persistent lemony lanolin characters on the middle palate. It is tightly structured in its youthful zestiness and finishes with clean & crisp, yet soft acidity. The wine is unoaked and totally fruit-driven.

Serving suggestions: Lightly chilled, Semillon is a delicious aperitif, and is a perfect partner for seafood and chicken, as well as Caesar salad.

I would buy this wine again

I really enjoyed this affordable easy drinking wine. I detected hints of grapefruit and lemongrass. It does not require and food pairing, as it stands alone quite well.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
