The 2012 Semillon reveals expressive, forward notes of green apples and fresh pears with nuances of lemon peel, grass and chalk. The light-bodied palate offers plenty of flavors, and while it’s a typically taut style, it is drinking beautifully now, with a racy acid line to carry the apple and herbal flavors to a long finish. Drink it now through 2017+.
