| The wine has a light straw colour with green tints and is in bright condition. Immediately one noses the glass, there is an impact of Sauvignon Blanc zesty notes — grass, leaf and passionfruit, in fact almost musky and Gewurztraminer — like, bolstered by lemon sherbet from the Semillon. When describing the Moss Wood Semillon, we emphasised the sheer quality of 2017 and this thread runs through the Sauvignon Blanc Semillon as well. The depth of fruit on the palate is tremendous and while the wine has the classic, acid freshness of the style, the high quality vintage has given it a generosity and length we don't often see. |
Profile:
Finds a balance between ripe pear and peach notes and tangy acidity, with a dash of cedar.
