GBP6.55

Product Details

Type: White still wine

Product Description

Along with Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon is one of the noble varieties behind the great whites of Bordeaux - sweet and dry. Rarely is it seen there on its own (you're far more likely to find dry 100% Sauvignons). That said, one or two of the top Sauternes are made almost exclusively from Semillon. No, dry Semillon is very much a New World phenomenon - you may already be familiar with the Aussie versions. We reckon this one from a group of top Cape winemakers is every bit as good - suggesting this is a style we'll be seeing more of in future. What this space ... Freshly grated lemon zest aromas lead to a full, creamy palate of citrus flavours. Lovely balanced acidity and good length. Serve with pan-fried fish, grilled lemon chicken or a Thai-style stir-fry.
