Medium straw hue, with green tints; bright condition.
Classic fully-ripened Semillon fruit aromas, with lots of fig, rock melon, pear and quince notes. The background is ripe Gala apple and lemon sherbet, sitting over what are the beginnings of butterscotch, lanolin and mushrooms.
Palate
Generous ripe fig and apple notes fill a round, full bodied palate, capturing the essence of the vintage. Acidity and tannins are firm but are currently sitting under rich fruit note and will only become evident as the wine ages. One of the most drinkable Semillons we’ve made.
Cellaring
Despite the obvious early-drinking appeal, this is definitely a wine for the cellar. It has the generosity of the famous Moss Wood 1980 Semillon and will certainly repay, in the same way, those who have the time and patience to cellar it.
To develop some bottle bouquet, the 2020 vintage will need to be cellared for at least 10 years but will need at least a further decade after that to reach full maturity.
