Idiom Semillon 2020
R250.00
A complex, medium to full-bodied example of barrel-fermented Semillon. Delicate custard and subtle lime-cordial aromas with musk and white spice notes. A voluptuous, waxy mid-palate with hints of asparagus, white pepper and biscuit reveals Semillon’s zesty, rich character and inherent structure. A wine that will benefit from cellaring and a definite food companion. Enjoy with scallops, white meats, or dishes with cream sauces.

Vinification Details | The grapes were picked in early morning and transported to the cold container for overnight storage. The next day the grapes were first bunch sorted before being de- stemmed and the berry sorted. The berries went straight into the press, and the juice there after was settled for 3 days before being racked and inoculated for fermentation. The wine was fully barrel fermented and aged a further 6 months, before being lightly filtered and bottled. |
