The White Ribbon
Hunter Valley Classic Dry Sémillon
Hunter Valley, New South Wales, Australia
This bottle was 6$ and from what I've heard, H.V. Semillon can be amazing! This bottle on the other hand, was showing off its budget muscle. It had a fuller body and attempted at some crisp/tart citric notes but really fell flat on its finish. You and I for that matter, should consider buying a higher quality bottle for this style.

Wet stone, flint, slate, and a touch of gooseberry. Excellent food wine.

Not bad wine for dinner. Not too dry even though it says it is.
