fresh & lifted with classic citrus flavours
A flagship variety of the Hunter Valley, our Pewter Series Semillon is beautifully lean, zesty and refreshing with lifted citrus notes. Sourced from the Spring Mountain vineyard Broke Road, Broke, the Semillon for this wine was harvested in the cool of the night, arriving at the winery at 2am. To add complexity and provide a soft mouth-feel, the wine was left on yeast lees for one month before milk fining, final filtration and bottling.
Palate
A beautifully lean Semillon with classic lemon, lime flavours balanced by soft natural fruit sugars which provide a soft yet fuller wine style.
Aroma
Lifted lemon and lime aromas complemented by complex mineral and floral undertones.
Cellaring
While great young, this wine will develop lovely toasted aged characters when aged for up to 10-15 years.
food pairing
The lifted lemon and lime notes of Semillon match perfectly to seafood. Pair with a light white fish dish such as Barramundi or grilled whiting fillets.
