A quirky blend for a quirky bird. Ian & Suzanne have a special affinity for the lyre bird and have made a quirky blend of Verdelho, Pecorino, Vermentino and Albariño to make a crisp, easy drinking wine. Delicious (the wine not the bird).
The renowned Dairy Hill block consistently produces the best Semillon for Briar Ridge each year and the 2019 vintage was no exception. With Kaffir lime leaf and lemongrass aromas and flavours, enjoy this crisp, elegant wine now or cellar this sleeping beauty over the long-term (if you can wait).
From 30 year old, low yielding vines this is an intensely citrus, beautifully structured wine. A classic Hunter Valley Semillon that will go for 20+ years.
Made from small parcels of wine selected for their distinctive varietal and regional characters. This wine displays herbaceous aromas melded with a citrus and grapefruit palate.
Hunter Valley Semillon is lean and racy in its youth but develops texture and complexity with age. It also will reflect the origins of where it is grown. This is wine will provide immediate enjoyment, though time in bottle will reward patience. Cellaring Potential 10 + years
