Wine Details
Price:
$19.99 per bottle
Description:
One of our Collector’s Edition Wines, this Semillon is the product of three separate vintages. The torrential rains of 2002, followed by the freeze of 2003, drastically reduced the amount of Semillon that we produced each year. The single barrel of Semillon produced in 2002 was aged for 12 months in new oak and then transferred to a neutral barrel for two years. In 2003, we also got a single barrel of Semillon, which also went into a new barrel for 12 months, followed by a year in a neutral barrel. Finally, we actually got a full crop of Semillon in 2004! We barrel fermented this Semillon and then aged it in a combination of French oak barrels of various ages for 6 months, sur lees. The Semillon underwent partial malolactic fermentation. We then blended the three vintages together, and bottled the Semillon Reserve in May 2005. We love this elegant white wine, and we hope you will too!
