Sep 10th, 2023A very decent Semillon dominated blend from Graves.
Needs a bit of air to show the full bouquet of creamy, waxy lemons, fresh nettle, shy green gooseberries.
Nice freshness on the palate, with juicy acidity balancing off the creamy Semillon influenced mouthfeel.
A hint of salty, green minerality towards the end adds complexity, though it turns a bit too herby & bitter with time.
