92 Points James Halliday This outstanding Semillon is produced by Ashbrook Estate in the Margaret River wine region of Western Australia. "Young Margaret River semillon has a greater range of aromas and flavours than those of the Hunter Valley; tropical fruit runs alongside grassy characters, partly due to the much riper fruit and higher alcohol. This wine is a clear example." 92 Points James Halliday, www.winecompanion.com.au "Highly recommended. Wine of great quality, style and character, worthy of a place in any cellar." James Halliday Australian Wine Companion 2012 Normal Price: $26.85ea Our Price: $21.85ea or $20.85ea in a straight dozen Ashbrook Estate is rated a 5 Red Star winery by renowned Australian wine critic and vigneron, James Halliday. "Outstanding winery regularly producing wines of exemplary quality and typicity. Will have at least two wines rated at 94 points or above, and had a 5 star rating for the previous two years." Tasting Note: The wine has an elegant, fresh fruity aroma with overtones of cut grass. The palate is clean and flavoursome with a pleasant fruit sweetness in the middle palate and a crisp, refreshing finish. This wine demonstrates the excellent palate structure of Semillon. Suggested Cuisine: Enjoy with fresh seafood, fruits and mature cheeses. The wine is bottled in a screw cap to ensure it retains its freshness over a long period.  |
