Rec'd on Saturgay Fish Fry to accompany Miso (???) Salmon (Fish). Ubiqitous 'S E Australia'. This is my kind of Sem. May well keep. go buttery and deep, requiring a knife and fork, but this is young, fresh and lovely. A tiny nod at riesling underlaying a dash of lime. Warming in the glass brings out the various flavours. Not too complex yet and 'good' say I. Very quaffable, good now, may mutate into something super. |

Good TN Ba, Just a couple of questions: Which vintage was the wine, and how did the flavour finish on this young semillion. Is that a 90% semillion mix with the riesling grape or an extra ripe muscadelle splash (Monbazillac) to give the nod in the direction of Europe ? |

Is that a 90% semillion mix 2011 no additives, 100% Sem. Not a lonnnggg finish but it does linger, weaving thoughts of another glass. Pssssst. Had three but don't tell anyone. |

If the wine has declined significantly after being open for only 24hrs I would seriously doubt its aging potential. Drink up. |
