Brilliant pale and clear with green hues. Elegant citrus nuances with accentuated lime with a floral like lift that leaps from the glass. Harmoniously balanced, lime and white peach dominate a minerally austere line.
The Uno Series represents the very best of Hunter Valley winemaking. Luxurious and elegant, wines are only made in exceptional vintages in very small quantities. The fruit was machine harvested off the Bainton vineyard in the Broke parish of the Hunter Valley. Sandy loam over clay, the un-irrigated/dry grown vineyard has planting dating back to 1923, which is the exact block the Uno Semillon is harvest from. Fermentation was carried out at cool temperature in stainless steel to preserve the fruit. Fermentation lasts for 1-2 weeks. Post fermentation the wine was racked off the ferment lees, clarified, filtered and bottled immediately to retain freshness.

96 Point Rated - Campbell Mattinson James Halliday Wine Companion
"It's fair to baulk at the price but the quality is arresting. Developed notes make a gentle play but the main game is super-intense citrus, wax and lemongrass flavours. It bursts and rolls from start to finish in captivating fashion. It's a thing of beauty."
96 Point Rated - International Wine Challenge London 2019
"Concentrated exotic aromas of white nectarine, lime, ginger and dried mango. Hint of toast. Ample minerality. Cucumber-fresh finish. Great potential. Will improve. Drink now through 2040."
Winestate Magazine
"Beautifully toasty/honeysuckle development on the nose mixing with melon and orange rind-like fruit. Light bodied palate has lemon/lime primary fruit flavours."
