Translation missing: en.Tasting notes
The Semillon Straw White presents itself with a clear, pale straw color and light green reflections, which are visually appealing. Its bouquet reveals an intense presence of ripe grapefruit aromas, accompanied by fine herbal nuances and a hint of tropical fruits.
In the nose, there are ripe, tropical fruits, but on the palate, the wine becomes interesting with a wonderful acidity and freshness. Serve it well chilled at 8-10 degrees Celsius.
The grapes were either dried on the vines or on wooden pallets. The processing began as soon as a sufficient sugar concentration was reached. The grapes were not crushed or destemmed, but fermented on the skins in plastic containers. This helped to break down the cell tissue and release a bit more juice. The fermenting, sweet juice was transferred to old barrels at the end of the alcoholic fermentation.
The wine spent 15 months in old oak.

Semillon
Semillon produces white wines that are often round-bodied, with a fine texture and aromas of citrus fruit, pear and yellow apple. The acidity is usually mild to moderate, while tannins are generally barely noticeable. Depending on its origin and ageing, its distinctive character ranges from lean and fresh to soft and full-bodied. With increasing maturity, honey, wax and nutty notes may emerge. In the glass, the variety is usually pale yellow to golden yellow; mature or botrytised sweet wines often display a deeper golden hue.
Typical growing regions include South Africa, , Bordeaux and Australia's Hunter Valley
