A distinctive heritage profile. Still found on heritage trellises in the Cévennes and Ardèche; banned from commercial sale in France since 1935. North American black hybrid grape, a Vitis riparia × labrusca cross.

The wine region of Hunter Valley

Cradle of Australian viticulture (1825), 160 km north of Sydney. World signature: dry low-alcohol Sémillon (10-11°) with fresh citrus notes in youth, evolving after 10-15 years to candied lemon, toast, honey and beeswax, spectacular ageing. Medium-bodied "Hunter style" Shiraz, supple and earthy (leather, plum, sweet spices), capable of decades. Also Chardonnay and Verdelho.

The wine region of Nouvelle-Galles du Sud

Australia's 2nd wine state with diverse regions. Iconic Hunter Valley: a Sémillon unlike any other, straight, low-alcohol dry whites with vivid citrus when young, evolving over 10-20 years toward honey, toast and lanolin. Medium-bodied Hunter Shiraz, spicy and earthy (leather, red fruits). Also round Chardonnay and aromatic Verdelho.
