The Barbarian Semillon Chardonnay 2017
South Eastern Australia
Loading...
Chardonnay is the grape that introduced Aussie wine to wider audience and Semillons are among the country’s most exciting, longest lived whites. Add a dash of Chenin Blanc and you have something totally original. Gloriously fresh and fruity.

The Wine
The Aussies first came up with the now famous Semillon Chardonnay blend but it took a maverick like Bob Berton to consider adding Chenin Blanc. Taste this and you’ll see it really works. Semillon has been the classic of the Aussie wine scene for generations, especially in the Hunter Valley. Chardonnay is grown everywhere and Semillon Chardonnay blends have become one of this country’s signature styles. Chenin though is rarer, covering only 10% of the land devoted to Semillon. There’s no doubt about it, our old mate Bob Berton has come up trumps again. The ripe citrus of Semillon, the buttered toast of Chardonnay and the apple freshness of Chenin fill the mouth with flavour and put a smile on your face. Serve with spicy dishes and chicken.
