Château Tanunda 100 Year Old Vines Semillon 2023

This 2023 old vine Barossa Semillon is restrained yet shows plenty of promise with wafts of lanolin, melon and beeswax with touches of oak maturation. A subtle grip and creaminess to the texture with nutty oak peaking through plus a lengthy finish show good potential although right now it remains embryonic and tightly bound.
