An "off dry" style of Hunter Valley Semillon where the fermentation is stopped prior to completion. The appealing touch of sweetness is seamlessly balanced by an impeccable fruit purity and a juicy mouth-watering acidity providing a finish that is crisp, clean and fresh.
This is a deliciously taut style, expressing the six degrees of separation between ethereal texture and nervy tension....

Winemaking Overview
-
In the Vineyard
Relatively early hand-picked fruit from the Braemore vineyard. The Braemore vineyard was planted 1969 and is situated on the sandy alluvial flats of Hermitage Road, Pokolbin, and consistently produces Semillon featuring freshness, vibrancy, and remarkable longevity.
-
In the Winery
The delicate juice was cool fermented with the fermentation arrested before completion. This technique has produced a wine containing some natural residual sugar and a correspondingly low level of alcohol. The key to this style is achieving the perfect balance between the residual sweetness and the fine line of citrus-like acidity to ensure the wine finishes crisp, clean and fresh. A deliciously featherweight 'off dry' style of Semillon

The Vineyards
Whilst I have always applied a no compromise, attention to detail approach to my winemaking, I truly believe that 90% of the quality lies in the vineyard. The key to great wine is ‘keeping it simple’ to preserve that potential quality from the vine through to the bottle - Andrew Thomas
