"Fresh from the vine comes this lovely example of the Hunter Valley's idiosyncratic, love-it or hate-it semillon style. It's a comparatively soft expression of the style and therefore suited for early drinking unlike some of the more austere versions that show their honeyed, toasty best only after 10, 15 or even 20 years in the bottle. It hits the scales at a modest 11.3 per cent alcohol, making it a particularly good company with lunch. The flavours are lemony and lemongrass-like, particularly brisk and fresh, but soft and refreshing in this light-bodied style ready to drink now or over the next two or three years."
