Description:  

Mount Pleasant Elizabeth Semillon Hunter Valley – Inspired by the first visit of a reigning monarch to Australia in 1954, today Mount Pleasant Elizabeth is the embodiment of the synergy achieved by combining the noble grape variety Semillon and the Hunter Valley. Having been placed in the cellars for extended bottle age, this small parcel of Semillon now enjoys the benefits gained from patience.

Tasting Note:  

The nose opens with fragrant floral notes of citrus blossom, followed by zesty ripe lime and mandarin aromas.

The wine is fine, tight and pure. Reflective of the aromas the wine tastes of fresh lemon and limes. The texture is light, bright and pure with a fresh line of acidity along the palate. The finish is fresh dry and seamless.

Drinking well now, but will reward up to 10 years further cellaring.
