Semillon Sauvignon Blanc

The Semillon Sauvignon Blanc blend has been made famous by Margaret River, Western Australia. The varieties match exceptionally well, with Sauvignon Blanc lending its aroma and acid, while Semillon gives the wine its structure. It is also made in the Riverina, where the blend is generally riper and fuller in style. The best examples from Australia show gooseberries with nettles and sweet herbs, citrus zest and crunchy acidity.

Originally from France's Bordeaux, it is used for White Graves and Sauternes. In Graves, Sauvignon Blanc tends to be the majority of the blend whereas Semillon is dominant in Sauternes.

CHATEAU D'YQUEM 1997 SAUTERNES (375ML), 375ml (Half Bottle)

  • Clive Coates MW (Rating 100) Pierre Lurton. 19.5+/20
  • The nose is just fabulous; there is evident richness here, in the shape of some smoky botrytis, but what really sets the wine apart is the beautiful, crystal-like clarity it possesses.
  • This characteristic carries through on the palate, which has a fine, cool purity and freshness, presented in a seemingly paradoxical fashion, as it is intertwined with great richness and a creamy vanilla seam which opens out, broadening across the palate. Wow! An amazing texture, with bright botrytis flavour and high quality candied fruits.
