Only five years young, that extra time has certainly done its thing. A superb wine, I had the luxury of tasting this De Iuliis Aged Release Single Vineyard Semillon alongside its newly released 2024 sibling and it was quite the treat to see where things are at. Go here.
There is still plenty of energy within and the slight toasty character expected with age is starting to show its hand. Honey tones are seeping through too, with lemons and limes not far from the action, albeit not as vibrant but there is still some zip. A sip slow and consider type of wine, match this with the textural splendour of scallops and heaven awaits. This will live comfortably for at least another decade. Superb stuff indeed.
