🌟 An old-vine Semillon with soul—Woodcutter’s is a richly textured, uniquely Barossan white with both depth and brightness.

👁 In the Glass:
Pale straw with golden flecks—subtle and refined.

👃 On the Nose:
Inviting aromas of lemon curd, chamomile, lanolin, and beeswax with hints of pear skin, almond, and honeysuckle. A gentle smoky nuance from the oak adds complexity without overpowering.

👅 On the Palate:
Textural and supple, with flavours of ripe citrus, white peach, and baked apple layered over a core of waxy richness. There’s a lovely saline edge and a whisper of nuttiness, with fresh acidity giving lift to a lingering, mineral-driven finish.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Excellent with roast chicken, seafood risotto, soft cheeses, or chargrilled vegetables. Also pairs well with creamy pasta or spiced Moroccan dishes.

⏳ Enjoyment Window:
Drinking well now, but Barossa Semillon has a surprising ability to age gracefully over 5–10 years, developing nutty, honeyed complexity.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Woodcutter’s Semillon showcases Torbreck’s commitment to old-vine expression with a fresh twist. It’s a Semillon with character—more structured and opulent than its Hunter Valley cousins, yet just as compelling. A white wine for thinkers and drinkers alike.
