Lock and Worth Sémillon Kelowna 2020
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaOne of two sémillons produced by Lock & Worth from 2019 (the other from Okanagan Falls) comes off the lauded Knorr vineyard on Mount Boucherie in West Bank, planted in 1993. Whole cluster pressed and native fermented in stainless, it was raised in neutral French puncheons (full MLF) for 2 years on full solids, mostly undisturbed. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered. Very much in youth still, with that telltale greengage, tart lemon, crunchy green apple, green herbs, and ample flake salts. Some youthful angles to shed still, but this wine and grape is well known to go the distance. Will retaste in future. If you buy the Sém upon release via the wine club, it's $30, but if you wait for the winery's 5 year latent release to the public, it will be $45. Get in while you can.Tasted: 16 February 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $26.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
