Pokolbin, Hunter, New South Wales, AustraliaIt's been lovely to track this vintage over time. This shows semillon's striking ability to age gracefully. Streamlined and white honeyed, this flows with intent. Showing twelve years of age with smile lines, this is pixellated lemon pith on the precise, medium-bodied palate. Everything about this wine is in a delicate and tender moment: fresh almonds, wild flowers, dried chamomile, salts, finishing on a bitter pear skin riff. Acidity hums, almost with a prickle, to the gentle finish (easy at 11.2 percent). Not done yet, but feels slowing down. 91Tasted: 13 September 2017Tasted by: Prices:
Pokolbin, Hunter, New South Wales, AustraliaBeautiful to taste with nearly a decade of time, and from a very good vintage. Intent eraser and struck stone to open. Evolved, heady notes of honeycomb, chamomile, nuts, lime pith, biscuit and seashell stream through the intense palate. Acidity has focus, palate has breadth and the finish is long. Will hold and deepen for another 10+ years.Tasted: 06 February 2015Tasted by: Prices:
Pokolbin, Hunter, New South Wales, AustraliaSpicy, lime, gooseberry, cashew, petrol and green apple skin aromas. Fresh, juicy, dry, delicate palate with lemon-lime, green apple, pear skin, floral, grassy, cashew flavours. Finish is very juicy and light but flavourful. Drink now but should improve for 2-5 years.Tasted: 29 January 2013Tasted by: Prices:
