Medium straw hue, with green tints. A classic Moss Wood Semillon. The fruit aroma of leaf and ripe figs is lifted by citrus and confectionery notes of lemon sherbet, plus pear, camomile tea, lanolin, wax, preserved lemon and even mushroom.
The wine’s initial impression is quite unctuous – concentrated fig, apricot and orange rind and preserved lemon flavours, supported by a full body. Underneath, the structure is firm but the acidity and tannin are well balanced by the flavour depth. The finish is clean, with no bitterness; there is length and persistence and the finish has the right amount of tannin to support long term cellaring.
As with all Moss Wood Semillons, the cellaring advice is quite straightforward. The wine currently drinks very well and can be enjoyed for its generous youthful fruit flavours. The bottle bouquet of toasty and buttery notes will take at least a decade to play a significant role and a further 10 years after that before they dominate. Therefore, expect it to reach full maturity at around 25 years old and should maintain that for at least a further 10 years.
