Vintage 2010, 2011 & 2012

Semillon is one of the best-known varietals in the Hunter Valley region with one UK wine writer calling it “Australia’s unique gift to the world”. Young Semillons tend to be quite racy with lemon-lime aromas and flavors that develop into more toasty, honeyed characters with age.

Dimbulla Estate Semillon has all the wonderful characteristics of young Hunter Semillon.
The grapes were handpicked after a hot mid-summer period. The result is a citrus nose and palate with fresh clean acid on the finish.

In recent years many Vintages have been affected by the actions of climate – in some years the rain damaged the vines and in one particular season the smoke from forest fires ruined the harvest. We have great hopes for the success of our Shiraz 2022 and Shiraz 2023 vintages which are currently in production and will be released in the next year or so.
