Moss Wood 2014 Semillon – “Way out West wine a winner” – The Mercury, Hobart – GRAEME PHILLIPS

Rating: Stars

This is softer, fruitier and less austere than the classic young semillons from the Hunter Valley, less citrusy and more a soft, rounded mouthful of ripe tropical fruits beautifully balanced around a refreshing acid core. While it is a lovely drop now, the tasting notes state it “will reach its peak over the next 15 years”.
