Western Australia makes the most distinctive and stylish Semillon Sauvignon wines, arguably Australia's finest. Fruit is sourced from a select group of choice growers in some of the most conspicuous viticultyral precincts. Grapes are harvested throughout the cool of night to capture and retain as much of the crisp regional characters as possible. Bunches are destemmed and the grapes lightly pressed. Vinifications are carried out in fermenters at low temperature, upon completion, components are trialled and assembled into a bright, fruit driven Semillon Sauvignon blend with classically dry yet fruit forward regional styling. A minimal filtration is employed just prior to bottling. Alcohol 13.5%
TASTING NOTES
Pale straw with a green hue. Pungent aromas of gooseberry accompanied by grass and briar wood notes combined with hints of tropical fruits. Exotic fruit flavours of lychee, dragon fruit and spice along with classic lemon peel and herb notes. The palate is well balanced, crisp and refreshing, a pure acid line and mineral character to the finish. Blissful with chillied crab or whiting almondine.

About the Taylors Winery
Situated at the very heart of South Australia’s beautiful Clare Valley, Taylors has become one of Australia’s best loved and most trusted wineries
The tale of Taylors winemaking goes back a few years – three generations in fact, and all began with Bill Taylor Senior, and his love of a certain Bordeaux wine. Originally wine merchants in Sydney, a passion for wine was all part of being a Taylor, and in particular, for the famous French Clarets such as Chateau Mouton Rothschild in Bordeaux’s Medoc region. It was this long held fascination for these wines which inspired the family’s foray into winemaking, and provides the inspiration and winemaking philosophy behind all Taylors winemaking today – to produce premium wines of exceptional and comparable quality in Australia.
