The lines are taut, the flavour is pristine. This bristles through the palate in excellent style.

About The Wine
Mike De Iuliis, always looking to raise the bar. This is Hunter Valley Semillon in truly fine form.
This wine hails from the 'Garden Vineyard', on the sandy flats that spread through central Pokolbin. Sandy soils are the holy grail for Semillon production and Mike nails this release.
It's Semillon with purity, concentration, drive and length. Great to drink now but certainly will develop beautifully in the cellar.
About De Iuliis
De Iuliis - pronounced [de uli ~ iss] - are one of the brightest stars from the Hunter Valley.
Owners Joss and Anna De luliis first planted vines on their estate in the famous Lovedale sub-region back in 1990, but it wasn’t until their son Mike got involved after graduating from the world-renowned Roseworthy campus (Adelaide University) in 1999 that things really took off.
Today Mike crafts an excellent array of site-specific wines that are a very good modern representation of what the Hunter Valley has to offer.
