Tasting Notes

The 2023 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc presents a beautiful pale straw colour in the glass. On the nose, the wine showcases aromatic tropical stone fruits such as guava and pineapple, with a touch of citrus zest. There are also subtle notes of cut grass and green pea, which add complexity to the bouquet. On the palate, the wine is fresh and crisp, with tangy flavours of citrus, green pea, and a touch of grassiness. The finish is clean and refreshing, leaving a zesty, mouthwatering aftertaste.

Food Pairing Suggestions

• Fresh Seafood: A perfect match with seafood dishes like prawns, oysters, or grilled fish, where the wine’s acidity complements the fresh flavours.
• Salads: Enjoy with light salads, particularly those with a citrus or vinaigrette dressing. The wine’s bright acidity enhances the freshness of the dish.
• Soft Cheeses: Pair it with soft cheeses like goat cheese, brie, or fresh ricotta to balance the wine’s tangy profile.
• Vegetarian Dishes: Great with vegetable-based dishes, particularly those with a bit of freshness like a green bean salad or vegetable stir-fry.

Best Serving Temp
