Tasting notes
Screwcap (which really does seem to have preserved the fruit well). Dr John Middleton's favoured blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon with a little Muscadelle that seems to have admirable ageing capacity. Pungent, slightly reductive nose. Well-integrated fruit that is not dominated by Sauvignon. A particularly distinctive wine that has nothing in common with Margaret River Sem-Savs. Rounder and more perfumed. (JR)

This has a very rich and complex fruit spectrum in 2017; everything is ripe and offering plenty of primary fruit with lemons, peaches and melon in abundance. The palate has a super plush, sleek and gently fleshy feel with a wealth of yellow-citrus and white-peach flavor. Great spine of acidity too. A blend of sauvignon blanc, semillon and muscadelle. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
