Fraser Gallop Estate Semillon Sauvignon Blanc (2018)

750mL / Margaret River, WA / Australia

Category: Wine
Sub-Category: White Wine

Fraser Gallop Estate believe creating a wine dominant in Semillon they highlight the strength of the variety in the Wilyabrup sub-region.

The relative warmth of the area compared to the sub-regions further south allows Fraser Gallop Estate to ripen the Semillon beyond the herbal elements, achieving golden bunches with a strong citrus flavour.

This is complemented by the Sauvignon Blanc, which is sourced from further south in Karridale and Wallcliffe. Coming from a cooler area it has zesty acid and punchy aromatics giving the wine some lovely passionfruit and gooseberry notes on the nose.

Tasting Notes:

Fraser Gallop Estate Semillon Sauvignon Blanc is a wonderful fresh style wine.

A crisp and refreshing palate with flavours of grapefruit, passionfruit and gooseberry with a sizzling citrus finish.
