This single-vineyard Semillon is drawn from Fordwich Hill Vineyard on the western fringe of the Lower Hunter Valley. This area experiences slightly lower annual rainfall than the rest of the region. Thomas usually favours lighter soils for Semillon, but Fordwich is an exception with its rich, deep, volcanic red soils flecked with ironstone. Thomas also leaves the fruit on the vine for longer, meaning the style is riper and more generous. The fruit fermented in stainless steel and spent a few weeks on lees before being bottled. The 2024 pours star-bright, and the purity continues from there. Juicy, citrusy and charged with mineral depth, there’s fleshy weight and some lovely richness. A come-and-get-me wine.

Reviews

“Barley sugar, lemon blossom and freshly cut grass entice on the nose. It's a finely styled wine; flavours of preserved lemon mix with fennel, hazelnut and herbal notes on the palate. There's an extra factor in terms of flavour and texture that you don't often see in young semillon. Great potenial to age too due to its intensity and depth.”
