This wine can definitely stand on its own and goes equally well with chicken, salad, pasta, a cheese platter and even pizza. Stonehill Lemon and lime olives work particularly well as a snack or add it to a green salad to serve with the Semillon. Alternatively, season couscous with the olives, cucumber and a few mint leaves and serve it with chicken or fish. Tiny snacks made with cucumber, cheese and mint will be another good option.
Semillon is often the blending partner of greater white blends. The style and quality achieved from our terroir was exciting, motivating us to bottle this wine as a single varietal.
Description: Elegant and well balanced with juicy lime fruit and fresh acidity. Still youthful, this wine will mature in the bottle.
Style: Dry White Wine
Varieties: 100% Semillon
Vinification: Grapes are handpicked at 22°B. Special care was taken not to pick bunches with botrytis as the vintages brought some infection. No skin contact was allowed, ensuring a vibrant green juice was extracted from the grapes. Fermentation was cold at 12°C with Vin 7 as the yeast used. Some lees aging on the fine lees was undertaken before bottling.
