2008 Casa Lapostolle, Casa Semillon, Rapel Valley, Chile

Casa Lapostolle, Casa Semillon, Rapel Valley, Chile
High density pre-phylloxera 80 year-old vines in the premium Apalta region of the Rapel Valley are the source for this intriguing and very fine New World Semillon, a far cry from the styles of both Bordeaux and the Hunter Valley but with great individuality and charm in its own right.

Six months of ageing have added gentle notes of toast and vanillin to the palate of pear-skin, grilled almonds and agrumes, with gentle brushstrokes of beeswax and honey hinting at a pleasing development over the next five years.
