K1 ‘Silver Label’ Semillon / Viognier 2008
This contemporary blend combines Viognier with cool climate early picked
Semillon. The Viognier adds generosity and complexity to the crisp, fresh
Semillon. The resultant wine has a tangy citrus fruit and orange blossum
with hints of tropical fruit, including pineapple and melon.
The palate displays crisp acidity and lemon zest from the Semillon and juicy
fresh apricots from the Viognier.
With 2 to 3 years cellaring this wine will develop more richness
and a creamy texture.
This wine is a great food match with spicy thai seafood or goats cheese tart.

Region: 100% K1 Vineyard
Harvest: Semillon was handpicked first week of March,
and Viognier the second week of March.
