Information about "Rickety Bridge The Pilgrimage Semillon 2021"
The Rickety Bridge The Pilgrimage Semillon 2021 captivates with a stunning bouquet characterized by fresh citrus fruits, zesty lime, and delicate floral notes. On the palate, the wine reveals a generous and full-bodied character, with delicious hints of golden honey and fresh citrus, complemented by a subtle nougat sweetness. The finish lingers long, making this a truly unforgettable wine. A remarkable selection from vines planted in 1905!
The grapes were whole-bunch pressed and underwent natural fermentation in Austrian oak barrels and Italian concrete fermenters. The juice fermented between 14-17 ̊C, with daily stirring of the lees for two months, followed by monthly stirring for the next eight months. After maturation on the lees, the wine was bottled and aged for an additional eleven months before release.
