<p><b>95 points</b> - Amazing finesse and intensity and concentration. Persistent and refined. Aromas are very complex, lemon, candle wax and snuffed candle, soft rind cheese. Nuanced and fascinating in the mouth. A beautifully aged semillon.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Aug 3, 2025.</p>

<p><b>93 points</b> - Medium deep gold. Vibrant, electric on the palate. A bit more body, phenolics than some of the other semillon from the region. More oxidative handling and picked a week later than most. Good length.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Nov 12, 2023.</p>

<p><b>92 points</b> - Quite fuller colour than some semillons. Nose more on the lemon than lime spectrum. Sherbet nose. Spicy, lots of acid hitting the palate but well counterbalanced by good ripeness.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Nov 12, 2023.</p>

<p><b>96 points</b> - Some tarry, charry characters. Firm and structural, peppery, lengthy. Not quite as accessible nor ready to drink as the others in the bracket tonight, but nevertheless a great wine. Hidden, coal dusty characters.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, Feb 28, 2023.</p>
