Gundog Estate Wild Semillon 2025

 

An off-dry Semillon that has been wild yeast fermented, there is plenty of textural interest here to delight.

As I sample this, I keep thinking that I need some Malaysian or Thai dishes beside it. That fine sheet of texture (30% sees time on skins for four months) lays a neat platform with delightful interplay of lemon juice and lemongrass. Herbal tea nuances offer a flirtatious charm with a delightful lemony acidity balancing out the residual sugar. Nicely done, it's time for some takeaway.
