$144.00

AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

Vintage: 2023 – an excellent white wine vintage, typified by good yields and a dry, mild ripening period resulting in flavoursome, aromatic wines.

Varietals: 53% Semillon; 37% Sauvignon Blanc; 10% Chardonnay

Appearance: Brilliant, pale straw with green highlights.

Aroma: Fresh & vibrant aromatics of lemon blossom, jasmine, guava, pear and white nectarine overlay subtle savoury notes of fresh herbs and green olive.

Palate: A textured and balanced style showing perfumed lift of citrus blossom and lime zest, combined with body and mouthfeel garnered from partial barrel fermentation and maturation on lees. Savoury notes of coastal herbs and fresh rocket add complexity while a punchy, saline acid line ensures a crisp, dry and refreshing finish.

Oak Detail: The Sauvignon Blanc portion of the blend was fermented and matured in a combination of new and seasoned French oak, while the Semillon was fermented cool in stainless steel tanks to retain freshness and aromatics. A good lick of Chardonnay adds weight, power and mouthfeel, while maturation on ferment lees contributes to texture and overall complexity.

Cellaring: Ready for immediate drinking and will continue to drink well over the next 4-5 years.

Food Pairing: Drink with basil and chilli squid.

About Fermoy Estate

About Fermoy Estate is a premium winery nestled in the beautiful region of Wilyabrup, the ‘jewel in the crown’ of the famous wine making region of Margaret River, Western Australia. It was established in 1985 by John and Beryl Anderson.

Wilyabrup, with its rich, loamy, well-drained soils, perfect temperatures and quality old vines is a purveyor’s paradise. Little wonder it is considered the ‘golden triangle’ of Margaret River. The main varieties grown are Cabernet Sauvignon, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Shiraz.

The winery is located right next door to the vineyard, so the grapes can be processed without delay, ensuring their premium qualities are retained. The winery processes some 350 tonnes of grapes each year.

Fermoy is one of the original established vineyards of the Margaret River region, but continually seeks to incorporate new ideas and technology. This reflects Fermoy’s ongoing quest to bring you the very best wines, while ensuring that everything we do is environmentally sustainable.
