Wiley Rooster Hunter Valley Semillon 2023
About the wine
Single vineyard Hunter classic!
- It's no surprise a wine made with this much TLC is in hot demand each year. Hand grown and hand made, Thomas has brought back another shining exhibit of Hunter terroir for you to immerse yourself in.
- The Hunter is world renowned for Semillon and this baby delivers. It is deliciously crisp with an abundance of citrus and lemongrass notes and a gentle sweet tingle on the palate, leaving you thirsty for more.
- If left to age for several years some unique and complex tones will develop; think vanilla, honey and toasty characters. Or if you're like us, this won't last more than a week at home. Crafted from a small batch, it's best to lock a few in you basket while you can!
Best before
drink this early to enjoy the current state but if you have more will power than I do this will age gracefully over the next 10-15 years
Serving advice
serve this wine chilled but not baltic that's for sure
Food match
this is paired perfectly with some beautiful Hunter River School prawns or any form of seafood. especially oysters!!
goes amazing well with any form of chilli based dishes
Contains sulphites
