| Tasted 19/2/04 at Akita in North Melbourne: Colour - yellow/straw. Nose - an open bouquet of toast, honey, a tiny hint of sugar cane and caramel. On the palate - lovely, all the hallmarks of a wonderfully matured Hunter semillon. A hint of camembert and caramel could be found amongst the honey, lanolin and toast, but still with refreshing crisp acidity to keep it going. Great balance, nice length and finish. In a good cellar, this wine has the structure and fruit to keep going. Perfect in the company of dear friends and with the small seafood dishes off Akita's 'special' menu. My last bottle :(... wish I had more... |
