De Bortoli Sacred Hill Semillon Sauvignon Blanc

De Bortoli Sacred Hill Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2008

Made by De Bortoli in Australia.

A dry, still, white wine with 11.5% alcohol tasted on 24th Aug 2009.

Grape: Sauvignon Blanc Semillon

Quality: Below Par

Value: Okay

Cost: Usually between $3.99 - $7.00.

Looks: Very pale and light looking, almost blue/green flashes in colour.

Smells: Green grass and asparagus

Feels: Light

Tastes: No real refineness here, and not really any fruit either. Having said that, it is fresh and lively with a real green grass and that asparagus tone. It actually has some length too. I can't say it is a wine I would choose again, but it is drinkable and it is not altogether unpleasant.

Possible retailers: Vintage Cellars, BWS, Woolworths Liquor, Liquorland, Dan Murphy's, Kemeny's, 1st Choice.
