The wine region of Hunter
Historic Australian region in New South Wales (Lower Hunter, volcanic soils, warm and humid climate tempered by coastal proximity): Semillon is a world-famous king in whites, harvested early — crisp, light, with citrus notes of lemon, lime and green apple evolving into honey, toast and hazelnut after long cellaring. Shiraz is king in reds: medium-bodied with red and black berries, spices and fine tannins, developing leathery and earthy complexity in bottle, recognised longevity, elegant perfume.
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.
The word of the wine: Brilliant
Said of a very limpid robe whose reflections shine strongly in the light.
