Mount Horrocks `Watervale` Clare Valley Semillon from Australia is a still, dry White wine crafted from 100% Semillon grapes. This exquisite wine was barrel-fermented in French oak, with 40% new barriques, and aged on lees for nine months, contributing to its restrained creamy texture. It presents an impressively light, elegant, and zesty profile, bursting with vibrant flavours of lemon, apple, freshly cut grass, and subtle spicy oak. Certified organic, vegan, and vegetarian, this wine is a testament to meticulous winemaking. It pairs beautifully with poultry, lean fish, or mild and soft cheeses, making it a versatile choice for many occasions.

Vinification
Vinification
Upon arrival at the winery, the hand-harvested grapes were crushed and destemmed. This wine was 100% barrel-fermented in French oak barriques, of which 40% were new. Lees stirring took place every two weeks for three months, and the wine remained on the lees to age for a further nine months. As always, the wine was bottled without fining.
