2022 First Post Semillon Sauvignon Blanc
Made from basket-pressed Stellenbosch grapes, the Semillon was barrel-fermented and aged on thick lees for 7 months before blending with unwooded Sauvignon Blanc. It promises to develop beautifully over two years, showcasing crisp acidity and complexity.

Appearance: Pale-yellow straw with green flashes.
Aroma: Ripe fruit, white peaches, and grassy undertones.
Taste: Lively green apple and citrus with a soft mid-palate and refreshing finish. The Semillon adds weight and a rich, creamy taste, complemented by well-integrated oak. Perfect as a food wine.
