Written Notes

The first of the ILR's, as a tribute to chief winemaker and Hunter icon, Iain Riggs, is surely one of the best. From a magnum at the 40th Anniversary event, this was glorious. Full of life, fresh, creamy and lemony. A stunning nose. Colour was an amazing gold/green, the wine offered a lanolin-like texture. It lingers and is a wine to linger over. A classic example of how wonderful mature semillon from the Hunter can be. 97.
