2008 Hunter Valley Semillon
Classic Hunter Semillon exhibiting grassy/minerally almost tropical fruit characters with good length of palate and attractive lemony acidity. A perfect accompaniment to all varieties of seafood. It has all the attributes to develop the aged toasty richness typical of Hunter Semillon which will start showing in this wine over the next 3-5 years.

Very smart, spicy, tropical/passion fruit wine. Nice pungency on the nose and huge, mouthwatering acid attack on the palate. Serve with a brie yummy, suggested one judge - 4½ Winestate Best Wines of 2009 Style Tasting Annual 2010 Edition. Equal top in category.
A spotlessly clean bouquet is followed by a star-bright and pure palate with nuances of lemon, grass, herb and mineral; a feather-like but long finish. 95 Points James Halliday
