Great value here from Western Australia – the home of SBS in Australia. It’s the classic Western Australian dry white writ large full of lovely, zesty herbals mingling easily with citrus, grapefruit pith, lime with a touch of green bean savvy exuberance – just a touch. Semillon plays its part well with a warm creamy smoothness. Overall, there is good balance and clarity of expression aided by some brisk acidity. The appearance of some perky lime zestiness really enlivens things up.
