Idiom Semillon 2024

R250.00

A delicate, aromatic example of barrel fermented Semillon. Subtle custard and lime cordial aromas with notes of cloves and white spices. Hints of prickly pear, capsicum and biscuit reveal Semillon’s zesty, textured 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 thereafter was settled for 3 days before being racked and inoculated for fermentation. This wine is made using a combination of 50% stainless steel and 50% French oak (1/3 first, 1/3 second, and 1/3 third fill French oak barrels) for a duration of 12 months.
