The Mount Horrocks Semillon Vineyard is on distinctly weaker, rocky soil. The vines struggle even in a ‘normal’ season. According to Stephanie, semillon vines need to be challenged if a wine with depth of flavour (as is the case here) is to be achieved. Mount Horrocks Semillon demonstrates long lingering lemon and spice flavours complemented by creamy lees complexity and a touch of French oak.
Tasting Notes
Light, bright yellow-gold colour. Appealing granny smith apple, lemon, subtle grassy aromas with spice notes and restrained oak. It’s generously flavoured yet crisp and refreshing, with supple, vibrant fruit and lovely texture and mouthfeel enhanced through barrel fermentation and maturation. Delicious now but has the depth and structure to age for at least a decade.
Outstanding.
