Since 1996, First Creek have been producing exceptional wines with high quality fruit sourced from the Hunter Valley and other regional vineyards. Their 2009 Reserve Semillon is a Hunter Valley classic, typical of the region.
This is archetypal Hunter Semillon of excellent quality. Lemon, lime, lanolin and fennel meet the nose, and the tight, high-acid palate has intense, sustained lemon curd flavours of tingly attraction. It’s lightweight with tight, minerally acidity and some secondary toast developing on the finish. A classic style that's only just showing the first whispers of bottle evolution and will continue to age well.
