Woody Nook SSB 2024 Margaret River

Tasting Notes

The 2024 Woody Nook Kelly’s Semillon Sauvignon Blanc opens with a fresh and aromatic bouquet of honeydew melon, tropical fruits, and a hint of grassy notes. On the palate, it bursts with vibrant flavours of lime zest and passionfruit, complemented by green apple and pineapple. The mid-palate is fleshy, and the wine finishes with a crisp, lingering acidity that leaves you feeling refreshed and ready for the next sip. There’s also a subtle nod to fresh snow peas and sugar snap peas, adding complexity to this delightful white blend.
