Cockfighter's Ghost Semillon
Hunter Valley
Sourced form the Broke Fordwich region of the Hunter Valley, this sensational
Semillon is a cut above the rest. As expected, it has definitive lemon
characters and a clean, fresh finish but what sets this wine apart from
the crowd is its mid palate weight. The added depth of flavour and palate
weight that comes from skilful viticulture and winemaking makes this wine
immensely drinkable. In true Hunter style, this wine is unwooded allowing
the pure Semillon flavours to shine through. Enjoy this wine for its uncomplicated
freshness. Great with fish.
