Purchased at Margan's cellar door in about 2012 as an Aged Release.
Moderate yellow at this point, with no hint of gold yet.
Trademark Hunter Semillon nose - lanolin, lemon pith, only slightly toasty, honeysuckle - all of which flow intact into the palate. There's reasonable acidity supporting all of this, and the wine finishes long and clean.
Not particularly complex, but holding up really well for 11 years old, and would appears to have plenty of time ahead of it.
Cheers

Wine, women and song. Ideally, you can experience all three at once.

Thanks Allan. I liked virtually all the wines I tasted at Margan's cellar door so pleased to hear that their semillon is aging well.

I'm impressed, as I had Margan down as not so ageworthy as other Hunter semillon's, though my experience must be 15 years old now!
