Wine Review - 2022 Semillon, The Washington Post

2022 Semillon, Hunter Valley, NSW

3 stars (out of 4)

'Semillon from Hunter Valley can be searingly austere in its youth. Brokenwood has reined in that acidity to just below the point of intimidation (or pain threshold, if you prefer). This allows the fruit flavors of apricot, pear, fig and kumquat to shine. This wine should improve with a few years of bottle age, but it’s also delicious right now, especially with richer, fattier seafood. If you’re thinking of cleaning off your grill and slow-smoking a side of salmon with an herby mayo crust, stick a bottle of this in the fridge and let me know what time to show up.''
