2023 Synergy Semillon
Winemaker's Comments
This wine is a blend of selected parcels of old vine Hunter Valley Semillon that we are fortunate enough to have access to. The distinctive characters of each vineyard work in synergy to create a wine with its own unique personality.
Part of what makes all our single-vineyard wines such benchmarks for the region is the absolute no-compromise approach to selecting only the very best parcels. This leaves behind a number of ‘declassified' parcels which we put together to create this blend. The majority of the 2023 Synergy Semillon blend is from our Braemore vineyard, with the balance from the Brycefield and Fordwich Hill vineyards. This wine delivers outstanding quality for everyday drinking at an amazingly affordable price.
Tasting Notes
A brilliant pale yellow/green in colour, this wine has a generosity of fruit not usually expected in Hunter Semillon. Floral aromas of orange blossom, Thai spices and lanolin dance around the glass, and are kept in check by a linear, lime-like focus. The palate offers flavours of citrus, ripe pear and melon fruit, with a lengthy, subliminally taut acidity providing a pleasing freshness to the finish. An absolute perfect accompaniment to fresh seafood dishes. Seriously smashable…..
