Rich nose for a Semillon, but with lovely lime and that classic Hunter acidity, nice and long finish, although a hint of bitterness on the end was screaming for oysters. very nice wine

Hunter Wineries (1) - Mt PLeasant & McDonald Rd: {screwcap, 11%, A$50} This is minerally, developing, with aromas of chalk and lime. It’s light-medium bodied, surprisingly steely for seven years old, with medium acidity just softening out as it hits the palate. This has a long, tangy, even finish; terrific aging Hunter Semillon. I’d drink now, seems like it will hold another 5 years easily.

Fragrant but not overpowering bouquet. A very good example of aged Hunter Semilion. Drink now
