Idiom Semillon 2020
12 Jpg

Idiom Semillon 2020

R250,00

A complex, medium to full bodied example of barrel fermented Semillon. Delicate custard and subtle lime- cordial aromas with notes of musk and white spices. A voluptuous, waxy mid-palate with hints of asparagus, white pepper and biscuit reveal Semillon’s zesty, rich character and inherent structure. A wine that will benefit from cellaring and a definite food companion. Enjoy with scallops, white meats, or dishes with cream sauces.
