What may seem like the unsung hero in many a Bordeaux Blanc, Semillon has the strength of character to shimmer in the shadows, merely offering support to a blend, or to reign supreme in solitude. Whilst most suited to home ground in Southwestern France, Semillon has emerged ever popular in the new world. In the early 19th century this “green grape” was widely planted in South Africa. Still today, SA boasts some of the oldest Semillon vines including the naturally mutated Semillon Gris. Australia’s Hunter Valley too offers unique, fresher styles of Semillon. Shop Semillon online to experience the flavor spectrum from light and lemony, through tropical fruits, to a nutty, lanolin waxiness that develops with careful vinification and thoughtful oaking.
