The 2023 Silkman Reserve Semillon is a premium Hunter Valley Semillon from New South Wales, sourced from 70% Blackberry Vineyard and 30% Murphy Vineyard fruit. The nose shows lemon, pink grapefruit and fresh-cut hay with delicate blossom and subtle mineral notes, capturing the purity and restrained character of classic Hunter Semillon.

On the palate, it is precise and energetic, with pristine citrus fruit, lively acidity and a fine slate-like mineral character driving the long finish. Made with a hands-off approach, the wine retains freshness and clarity, while its 11% alcohol contributes to its light, focused profile.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for those who enjoy age-worthy Australian Semillon with citrus purity, mineral tension and refreshing acidity. Delicious now for its youthful vibrancy, with potential to develop through around 2033 and beyond. Ideal with Sydney rock oysters, lobster, grilled fish, scallops or fresh seafood.

About the region

New South Wales · Hunter Valley

New South Wales is where Australian wine started, and the Hunter Valley remains its most distinctive corner. Humid and subtropical, it harvests early and makes two wines found nowhere else in quite the same form: Semillon picked low in alcohol that ages for decades into something waxy and toasty, and medium-bodied, earthy Shiraz. Cooler and higher, the Canberra District does spicy Shiraz with Viognier, and Orange works at genuine altitude.
