This Semillon Sauvignon French oak barrel fermented style is summed up best as “fine acidity meets barrel texture” creating a wine that is not especially fruity on the nose or palate but is elegant, finely balanced with length and composure. A wine that really sings with food. Aromas of gooseberry, lemon thyme and a hint of clove spice and floral elements in the mix. The palate is savory in style with light tropical notes infused with grapefruit. Chalk and mineral texture from the steel barrel fermentation and a lick of creaminess from the French oak barrels completes the picture leaving a dry mildly creamy finish. This wine with a strong Semillon component in the blend will repay extended cool cellaring
