De Lullis Description
The Hunter Valley is renowned for producing some of the best Semillon in the world. These vines were planted on our Lovedale Road property in the early 90s. Pale lime green in appearance, with a bouquet of intense lemon and lime characters. This wine, in its youth, displays fresh Meyer lemon characters, a light palate, and a crisp line of refreshing acidity.
The nose presents an intense burst of citrus, highlighting fresh lemon and lime. On the palate, a youthful profile unfolds with vibrant Meyer lemon zest and a delicate hint of jasmine. This light-bodied wine is beautifully balanced by crisp acidity, culminating in a refreshingly clean finish.
While delicious now, this Semillon is crafted for the long haul. True to Hunter Valley Semillon, it will beautifully evolve with age.
After five years or more, those vibrant citrus notes will gracefully mellow, transforming into a luxurious, creamy lemon meringue on your palate.
