Hester Creek Sémillon 2021
Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaSémillon is hardly a mainstream grape, although we know it from the mix of grapes in white Bordeaux, Australia, and where else but the Okanagan. This young wine has a juicy style featuring gooseberries, lime, and orange throughout. Bright and zesty, it delivers more pear in the reasonably lengthy and lightly spicy finish. It will take a few years for this to spin out the honey and complexity of age, but drinking it now or then will be a treat. Great value too.Tasted: 27 July 2022Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $21.99 | 750ml | winery online/direct |
