Since taking over the reigns at Cullen in 1989, Vanya Cullen has taken this esteemed winery to new heights including winning for herself the Gourmet Wine Traveller Winemaker of the Year honours along the way. The Mangan Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc Semillon is the sibling to the Cullen Vineyard version and shares the same level of elegance and flavour precision. Add to that precision an added layer of complexity and texture on the palate and you have what many consider to be Western Australia's premier 'classic dry white'.

Chain of Ponds Novello range of wines are made with a youthful, exciting and vibrant idea in mind and all three can be tasted in this crisp and refreshing white blend. Compromising of a blend of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc, the wine is a delicate blend of the lifted aromatics of the Sauv Blanc and wonderful texture and subtlety of the Semillon to lend itself to seafood matches wonderfully.

From red clay soils this is a more generous take on Hunter Valley Semillon. Nicely textured with lime and lemon intensity, some zesty freshness, and a long finish and lifted herbaceous characters.

In the glass: Pale lemon green.On the nose: Lemongrass, lime and lemon zest. On the palate: Light, fresh and zesty with lovely ripe citrus flavours underpinned by racy acidity. A classic youthful and tight Hunter Semillon that will develop well in the cellar.

The team at Hay Shed Hill has selected the best vineyard blocks on their Margaret River estate to create the Block Series. The fruit for this wine comes from some of the oldest Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc vines in the region. Full straw with yellow green hue, it presents a plush honeydew melon and warm honey mix with guava and lime juice generosity. The developing palate has a mouth-filling and harmonious mix of lime and melon with deeper traces of tropical fruits and touches of biscuit and honey chiming in on the finish. A complex barrel fermented style and ready to drink.

Shimmering like a diamond in the sea, Queen Snapper Semillon Sauvignon Blanc is a true reflection of classic Margaret River style, with elements of subtle citrus notes and fresh, vibrant tropical fruit flavours.

Released with bottle age this is a wine which will still continue to evolve over many years the toasty lemony flavours becoming richer and more intense. A classic benchmark Hunter Semillon, it has earned its place in the Langtons Classification of Australian Wine.
