WTN: Semillon

by David M. Bueker » Tue Nov 10, 2015 8:01 pm

2014 Dirty and Rowdy Sémillon - USA, California, Napa Valley, Yountville (11/10/2015)
Served alongside spaghetti aglio e olio (made a touch extra spicy with a liberal dose of red chili flakes), this was a lovely match. The refreshing acidity, along with the lemon/lime and honeyed waxy qualities made for a beautiful support to the meal, and an intellectually interesting drink on its own. I especially liked the mid-palate density. There is promise for mid-term development, so I will let my last bottle sit a few years.

Sounds like a good one to me David. Here in AB, I am always looking out for La Frenz from Okanagan..their Semillon can be quite good and will age.
