Briar Ridge Stockhausen Semillon 2025

Share

Lemon skin, pineapple core and golden apples. Some sourdough starter and kefir grains. This is approachable with its supple acidity and yellow toned fruits. Some bee pollen and candle wax too. This is splashing its character well in its youth and immediately displays why Semillon is perfect for anything you can squeeze lemon over. Snapper, scallops, chicken parmi. Drink now or cellar for 5-10 years further.
