The Rickety Bridge The Pilgrimage Semillon presents itself on the nose with stunning freshness and complex aromas of citrus, tangy lime and subtle floral notes. On the palate, this first-class wine is generous and full-bodied, with delicious nuances of golden and Turkish honey and fresh citrus fruit, perfectly rounded off by a fine caramel sweetness that ends in a long and aromatic finish.

The grapes were pressed all over the bunch and fermented naturally in barrels of Austrian oak and Italian concrete fermenters. The must fermented at regulated 14 -17 ̊C, with the yeast being stirred once daily for two months (batonnage) and once monthly for the next eight months. Once the maturation on the yeast was completed, the wine was bottled where it matured for another 10 months before being released for consumption.
