Surely that grape’s time will come…
It has the body of Chardonnay and the aroma of Sauvignon Blanc
– surely a recipe for success?”
–Jancis Robinson, author of The Oxford Companion to Wine

Planted in 1999, this excellent Sémillon from the Two Rivers Vineyard has been used exclusively for estate production until now to produce rich, complex, and well textured wines. We recommend that you let the fruit speak, and opt for stainless, neutral oak, or glass for bulk aging this wine on the lees for an additional 2 months after fermentation with weekly battonage.

This versatile varietal is widely planted in the Bordeaux region of France and is a key component of the dry Bordeaux blanc blend along with Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle. Sémillon is at the heart of Bordeaux sweet wines such as Sauternes, Barsac, and Cérons.

At 24.4 brix, you could make a dry or a sweet Bordeaux style wine! Either way, this juice’s aromas of dried guava, passion fruit aromas combined with layers of tropical fruits flavors will be a delight to work with.
