• Vintage Notes

  This lively and vibrant 2022 Semillon showed its potential consistently throughout ripening and harvest with great balance and flavour, all things pointed towards a solid wine. Once in tank and settled, the ferment filled the winery with a symphony of aromatics. Post ferment and a short time on fine lees, this wine was on point and off to bottle. We are excited to release this wine under our new Growers Range and couldn’t be happier with this cracking Semillon and new packaging.
