2023 Juniper Crossing Original White Semillon Sauvignon Blanc

A classic dry and savoury Margaret River blend.

A blend of 65% Semillon and 35% Sauvignon Blanc with 10% of the wine barrel fermented. Brilliant water like colour with a faint greenish tinge around the edges. Herbaceous gooseberry and passionfruit scents mix with grassy asparagus and subtle lime notes. Racy gooseberry, lime and passionfruit flavours have a herbaceous grassy and asparagus like overlay. Crisp acidity finishing very dry and savoury yet with ample length.
Drink over the next 3-4 years.
Alc. 12%

Other Reviews…..
You’re getting a decent bang for your buck with this classic example of a Margaret River staple, It’s the classic blend but then there’s more. The Savvy came from the cooler Karridale area in the south and 10% of the Semillon was barrel fermented before whole bunch pressing and wild fermentation. You don’t often see that level of winemaking in a wine that sells for $18. The result is a wine that captures the essential fruit energy complemented by that subtle bit of winemaking artifact. Drink 2024-2027.
