The Audrey Wilkinson Sémillon 2021 from the Hunter Valley is a classic example of a premium Australian Sémillon, known for its vibrant freshness, purity, and potential for aging. The palate is of fresh citrus fruit flavors with green apple notes and hallmark minerality, combining with crisp acidity to deliver freshness and structure.
The 2021 vintage is regarded as a classic Hunter Valley vintage, the vines were in healthy condition with plenty of foliage. A cooler and drier than average January after excellent December rainfall combined to deliver ideal ripening conditions, with grapes showing flavours of great freshness and intensity. Good vineyard management and winemaking has resulted in some of the best wines we've made, with the white wines in particular having great intensity of flavors.
