Si Vintners Chinchecle Semillon 2018 (Orange)

Tasting Notes

Cool colour! Lifted aromatics of layered citrus peel and a similar palate to boot. It's tasty and operatic as the wine speaks different volumes and tones ("when it hits your lips, it's so good"). The palate is a tad hard when initially opened, but given time to breath it will sing a much nicer song. - Chris L

The semillon was also planted in 1978 however it is from the south facing side of our farm, which has a higher gravel content. This wine is very dear to us as it does not always produce a sufficient crop. Post harvest the grapes are pressed directly into concrete eggs where the wine remained for 10 months. It was then racked into stainless to allow for any sediment to settle. - Winery Note
