Tuesday, May 30, 2017 - One of the most incredible Aussie Whites I've had the blessing to taste.

Was it a bird (Chardonnay)? Was it a plane (Semillon)? We were all stumped. But one thing was for sure:

THIS WAS THE REAL DEAL!

Pure understated brilliance best sums this up.

The sheer elegance, refinement & complexity of this wine had me mesmerised in delicate citrus, lemongrass, slate, nuttiness and cream. The ultra pale yellow should have given it away: this was no Chardonnay. But the velvet-smooth, long creamy drive & finish had me doubting it was a Semillon.
