Product information "Rickety Bridge Paulina's Reserve Semillon 2023"
The Rickety Bridge Paulina's Reserve Semillon bewitches the nose with fresh aromas of tangy lime and juicy apples as well as heavenly hints of honey and beeswax. On the palate this wine is full-bodied and opulent with delicious nuances of honey and citrus fruit in perfect balance with integrated wood notes, fresh minerality and a pleasantly long and creamy finish.

The fermentation took place without the use of yeast in small French oak barrels, of which 20% was virgin wood and 80% was wood that had already been used. The must was fermented at controlled temperatures between 14 - 17 ºC. The yeast was stirred daily (batonnage) for two months and then every two weeks for another 3 months. The wine then matured for 11 months in French barriques.
