The 2023 Hay Shed Hill Block 1 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc is a premium Margaret River white blend sourced from some of the estate’s oldest dry-grown vines, delivering intensity and complexity beyond the typical style. It reflects the region’s hallmark freshness while adding depth from low yields and careful winemaking. The nose is bright and expressive, showing lemon, lime and gooseberry layered with fresh herbs, subtle grassy notes and a gentle toasty nuance.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with vibrant acidity, offering crisp citrus, tropical hints and a refined texture, finishing long, clean and ultra-dry with impressive persistence.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a standout Margaret River SSB for customers seeking more intensity and structure than standard blends. It’s fresh yet layered, making it both refreshing and food-friendly. Best enjoyed now for its vibrancy or over the next 3–5 years. Perfect with oysters, sashimi, goat cheese or light Asian dishes.
