Grassy citrus fruit flavours and crisp acidity
Rutherglen’s continental climate is ideal for the production of Semillon. We aim for a balanced style, with varietal grassy notes, ripe citrus fruits and subtle oak integration. - Colin & Jules Campbell
The fruit was harvested in the early morning with only a light pressings fraction. The ferment was initiated in stainless steel and transferred to 3 and 4 year old French oak puncheons for completion. The wine was matured in oak for a further 9 months before bottling.
Favourable vintage conditions in 2016 enabled us to produce some excellent white wines with intensity of flavour and great depth of varietal fruit. With superb balance and integrated flavours, we believe this wine will continue to develop in bottle for five to ten years. A versatile food wine, try pairing with a zesty lemon seafood risotto.
