Briar Ridge Dairy Hill Semillon 2017

The Dairy Hill block is one of the best Semillon vineyards in the Hunter Valley, consistently producing low yields of concentrated fruit. This was particularly
so in 2017 – a standout year for the Hunter.
 
In the winery: Following inoculation with a selected white wine yeast, the wine was fermented at 12-15ºC for 15 days.
In the glass: Fine straw with a green hue.
On the nose: Bright lime juice, lemon, cut grass and lime zest perfume.
On the palate: Lime juice and a touch of fennel provide a racy, ripe and positive fruit core with textbook quinine-like varietal hints adding to the juicy mouth-feel.
