Brokenwood Hunter Valley Semillon 2025

A delicate, fresh and beautifully zesty Hunter Valley Semillon, bursting with lively flavours of lemon and crisp Granny Smith apple. Elegant and refined throughout, the palate reveals subtle layers of sea salt, dried thyme, mineral notes and a delicate hint of white flowers.

The wine finishes with a racy line of acidity that is in complete harmony with the vibrant citrus and savoury nuances, delivering a long, clean and wonderfully refreshing finish.

An outstanding summer drinking wine, offering purity, elegance and exceptional balance. Equally enjoyable on its own or alongside fresh, flavoursome dishes.

Winemaking

The 2025 vintage was produced from predominantly hand-harvested Semillon grapes, which were crushed, chilled and pressed immediately after picking. Fermentation took place in stainless steel using neutral yeasts, with no oak or malolactic fermentation, preserving the wine's vibrant natural acidity and fresh citrus character. Bottled in May 2025 to retain its youthful purity and freshness.

Food Match: Grilled white fish with lemon and herbs, freshly shucked oysters, goat's cheese, or a classic Caesar salad.

Region: Hunter Valley, NSW
