mehrere Informationen

The Shannon Triangle Block Semillon ensnares the nose with a complex and musky bouquet of seductive aromas ranging from ginger and quinine to lime zest, cardamom and fine minerality. This naturally fermented Semillon ensnares the palate with a full and rich mouthfeel, remarkable complexity and density. Its subtle salinity gives the delicious spicy and citrus nuances a touch of grip, which is very reminiscent of the old world Semillon version. This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for this seventh vintage of Shannon Semillon come from a 14-year-old vineyard plot of 0.5 ha. The Semillon, naturally fermented in barrels, matured for 11 months after fermentation in 30% new French oak barrels.The wine was then regularly stirred (batonnage) to transfer a beautiful complexity and fullness to the wine.
