BROKENWOOD ILR Reserve Semillon 2018 | Hunter Valley | 1 BOTTLE | AU$100-110 | AUD $ 79 |
Robert Parker Score: 96+ points

The 2018 ILR Reserve Semillon will be released in October 2024 (so, in three months from now). Aromatically, the wine leads with pressed white flowers, wet chalk, white beach sand and crushed shells. This is a beautiful, tightly wound, almost ethereal iteration of this wine. It is quiet, subtle, restrained, magnificent. These characters now will evolve over time to slowly unravel in wisps of toasty flavor. 11% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
