An outstanding example of Semillon. Brilliant, golden colour with green hue. The nose has a wonderful array of exotic oriental notes, dominated by green tea, spice and ginger. Creamy texture, with mouth filling flavours of spice, green tea, ginger and tropical fruit. Clean acid finish, with very long aftertaste of spice and green ginger.
