    Description

    The Glenguin botrytis Semillon is velvety and silky on the attack and has a long and lasting finish. Lifted notes of candied orange peel are combined with the gingerbread spice typical of botrytis affected fruit. The palate is also full with a smooth, luscious texture. In addition, honeysuckle notes complete the flavour profile with a refreshing, cleansing acidity. 

    This is honeysuckle in a glass – sweet and lush, without being cloying. We’ve blended in a small parcel of barrel-aged Marsanne (5%) which gives a lovely hint of pineapple at the back of the palate. This wine is a great match with Foie Gras or a creamy blue cheese.

    Description

    The grapes were picked, pressed then cold settled before reverse osmosis was used to concentrate the sugar levels prior to fermentation. We use this method as it allows us to pick the fruit when ripe with only a touch of Botrytis, giving the wine a fine natural acidity that balances with the residual sugar. We allow ‘The Sticky’ to ferment a bit dryer than many dessert wines – so the wine, whilst still sweet, doesn’t coat the mouth with syrupy sugar.

    ABOUT THIS BRAND

    Glenguin

    Glenguin Vineyard was first planted in the 1980s with an average vine age now over 25 years and each wine comes from a small individual vineyard block on the property. Organic and biodynamic farming principles are followed at Glenguin where things are still done by hand from planting through vine training to pruning and handpicking at vintage.

    The shiraz and semillon vines at Glenguin are directly descended from James Busby's original planting at Kirkton in the 1820s. They are planted on their own roots on a unique combination of a raised gravel bench for shiraz with sandy loam over red basalt for Semillon.

    The name Glenguin comes from the original Scots Gaelic name of the Highland distillery now called 'Glengoyne " (since 1909). Robin Tedder, Australia's 7thMaster of Wine, is the third Baron of Glenguin and grandson of Arthur Tedder the First Baron Marshal of the RAF and Deputy Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in WW2. Arthur was born on the distillery property in 1890 and the Tedder family continues the association with great drinks through the vineyards at Glenguin in Australia's oldest wine region, the Hunter Valley.

    Glenguin wines have won major Trophies including NSW and Boutique Wine Show Trophies for best white wine plus both Best Red and NSW Wine of the Year at the NSW Wine Awards for shiraz. Production is extremely limited with just a few hundred cases of each of our wines.
