Region Hunter Valley

Winemaker - Usher Tinkler

Colour Cockfighter's Ghost Semillon 2009, is vibrant lime green in colour, 

Aroma this unwooded Semillon has aromas of citrus blossom, lychees and lime

Palate These tropical fruit characters combine with fresh acidity on the palate to provide a dry, crisp and well balanced finish.

Cellar This semillon has been bottled early to capture its fresh youthful appeal but like all classic Hunter Valley semillons, it will benefit from up to ten years bottle age if stored in optimum conditions.

Food Match As a young wine, this semillon makes an ideal aperitif, and is well suited to a wide variety of lightly flavoured foods including fresh seafood, especially white fleshed fish, barbecued prawns, oysters and sushi. With bottle age it will suit more robust dishes including grilled lobster, mud crab, oven roasted poultry dishes or mature washed rind cheeses.
