Semillon is grown in other regions of Australia, but these green and gold grapes are the stars of Hunter Valley Wine Country, home of one of the longest living white wines on earth. Intriguing and inspiring in equal measure, Hunter Semillon is the ultimate reward for those patient enough to wait, and this sensational dozen delivers premium expressions from Annasdale, Drayton’s Family Wines, Hungerford Hill, Tinkler’s and more, all for just $17 a bottle.
From one of the Hunter Valley’s most historic winemaking families comes the classically regional and varietal Drayton’s Family Wines Semillon 2020, crafted from premium local fruit. Clean and tight, it is dry and savoury with a fresh mix of lemon, lime and oyster shell, mouth-watering acidity and a clean finish. Lovely now but will develop well in the medium-term.
Vintage to vintage Usher Tinkler makes some of the best Hunter Semillon, and the deliciously fragrant Tinklers School Block Semillon 2021 is true-to-form. Very pure and just a baby, it displays excellent energy and focus with fine lemon juice flavours delivering satin-soft mouthfeel, with bright natural acidity and a chalky finish.
