McHenry Hohnen Semillon Sauvignon 2009 - 75cl

David Hohnen established the winery in Marlborough, New Zealand with partner Kevin Judd that went on to become one of the wine world's most iconic names: Cloudy Bay! In 2006, David Hohnen and his brother-in-law Murray McHenry launched McHenry Hohnen in Australia, a family owned wine producer sourcing grapes from four vineyards around the Margaret River in Australia.

The Mediterranean climate of the Margaret River is perfectly suited to growing varieties associated with southern France and Spain as well reflecting the regions heritage with Bordeaux varieties.

This is, in my opinion, an outstanding wine. Aromas of fresh gooseberry and passionfruit dominate tropical fruit aromas, working neatly into a generous mix of fresh cut grass and lemon citrus. The palate is intense but controlled and restrained with a fine acid and lingering, lively flavours. Super with friends (if you can bear to share it).

Suits seafood, risotto, pasta etc.

ABV: 12.5%
