  January 24, 2015 - Margaret River Sauvignon Blanc Sémillon tends to have a quite distinctive character of grass and lemon, cream and steel, with a hint of tangerine or orange and so does this wine. Now four years old it is still showing well, albeit with a more understated, less exuberant manner than it must have had in youth.

  February 26, 2013 - Light yellow color; ripe citrus, ripe grapefruit nose; textured, medium bodied, tart grapefruit, mineral palate; needs 1-plus years; medium-plus finish 91+ points (12.5% alcohol; 65% Sauvignon Blanc, 45% Semillon)

  December 9, 2012 - NobleRottersSydney - Christmas Lunch 2012 (Geoffrey's place): [screwcap, 13%] Youthful, sweetish tropical passionfruit aromas. None of the usual Margaret River greenness. Not a lot of acid either; this is distinctly light-bodied; there are at least some grassy flavours amongst the sweet fruit on the palate but it’s a pretty simple and undemanding wine. Chill down, drink young.

  October 13, 2012 - Quite tropical fruity. Strong note of peach, grapefruits, citrus, lemon. It demonstrates the typical characteristics of both sauvignon blanc and semillon. Balanced sweetness and acidity. Medium crispiness and freshness. Average performance.

  October 6, 2012 - Gorgeous wine; pale lemon lime colour, lovely nose without being overpowering. Tight structure. Drinking beautifully with leon and melon flavours. Perfect wine with prawns, fish or vegetable risotto. Drink now, at its peak
