First Creek Semillon Hunter Valley 12

Try this benchmark Semillon, from Australia's oldest wine region, with over 10 years age. ' First Creek Wines is a second-generation family owned and operated winery based in Hunter Valley, a tropical region outside of Sydney renowned for its unique style of early-picked, racy and tropical (but DRY) Semillon. The winemaking emphasizes careful fruit selection and rigorous attention to detail to produce a range of wines that appeal to both critics and consumers. With age, this Semillon's intensely tart fruity notes (peach, lemon, passionfruit) become secondary to the wine's secondary characters (notes of beeswax, dried green herbs and white tea). Still holding the acid nicely, but now with palate weight and finesse. An absolute stunner!
