Umamu Estate only releases their wines when theyve had time to develop in the bottle and this Sauvignon Blanc Semillon is drinking beautifully now. In the glass: Beautifully vibrant bright lemon with a still-youthful green tint. On the nose: Lifted mix of toast and honey development. On the palate: Rich and beautifully developed with a lovely warm core of buttered toast, preserved lemon and lemon curd in a terrifically textured, layered and complex wine. So remarkably fresh and complex.

Margaret River is renowned for its stylish Sauvignon Blanc Semillons. This 2017 SBS is fresh and clean emanating from a multi star rated Halliday Winery. Enjoy. VARIETY 58% Sauvignon Blanc, 42% SemillonØ REGION Margaret RiverØ COLOUR Pale StrawØ AROMA Intense gooseberry and guava notes highlighted by fresh citrus overtonesØ PALATE Full, fresh, crisp palate, with well balanced acidity. Dominated by the tropical fruit flavours that linger on the palate with a zesty citrus finishØ WINEMAKING Fruit picked cold in the coolness of the night. Modern white wine making techniques were used with temperature control critical from the vineyard through to the winery. The fruit was destemmed and crushed then must chilled and pressed off the skins quickly. It was allowed to settle for 72 hours before being racked in a clarified state to a fermentation tank. Each variety was kept separately with the idea to maximise it s potential prior to blending. Blending took place to maximise the freshness and zestiness of the Sauvignon Blanc but to also allow the creaminess and texture of the Semillon to give the wine some back boneØ TYPICAL ANALYSIS 12.7% AlcoholØ FOOD MATCHING Seafood, chicken and pasta.

Fragrant and energetic, the nose has an abundance of lycee, kiwifruit and blackcurrant with lime curd and lemon sherbet. Thai basil, sliced fennel, ginger and citrus blossom sit neatly in the background. A gentle entry leads to a delicately textured mid palate. Bursting lemon, lime and grapefruit dominate throughout with bright acidity, a slightly savoury line and a talc-like finish.
