The fruit aroma of leaf and ripe figs is lifted by citrus and confectionery notes of lemon sherbet, plus pear, camomile tea, lanolin, wax, preserved lemon and even mushroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine’s initial impression is quite unctuous – concentrated fig, apricot and orange rind and preserved lemon flavours, supported by a full body.  Underneath, the structure is firm but the acidity and tannin are well balanced by the flavour depth.  The finish is clean, with no bitterness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePRODUCTION NOTES\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fruit was hand-picked and delivered to the winery where it was whole-bunch pressed and the juice was then settled in stainless steel tank for 48 hours.  The clear juice was racked to stainless steel and seeded with multiple yeast strains for primary fermentation.  This was controlled to a temperature of 18°C and once the wine reached dryness it was racked and prepared for bottling as soon as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFining trials were carried out to assess tannin balance but none of the treatments improved things and so the wine was treated only with bentonite for protein stability.  It was then sterile filtered and bottled\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCELLARING NOTES\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the short term, the youthful fruit flavours should remain a strong part of the wine for at least the next 5 years.  Around years 7 – 10, Semillon can experience something of an adolescence where some of the initial aromas have aged away but are not yet replaced by the developing bottle bouquet.  However, from 10 years on the wine should hit its straps and reach full maturity around 25 years old.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Summergate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47792089759915,"sku":"AS011-21","price":268.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3023\/7867\/files\/moss-wood-ribbon-vale-sauvignon-semillon_1.png?v=1789195130","url":"https:\/\/www.regiswine.com.hk\/products\/moss-wood-semillon-margaret-river-2021","provider":"Regis Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
