Fraser Gallop Parterre SSB

The inspiration to make this “Graves” style of wine comes from Pessac-Leognan in Bordeaux.  An often-misinterpreted style of wine and one that is often overlooked for the Chardonnay, but has the genetics to far outlast Chardonnay in the aging stakes with its zippy acidity and predominance of Semillon.  These styles of Semillon Sauvignon Blancs offer far more complexity and interest and make better food wines than the usual stainless steel tank fermented SSB blends.  This style takes Semillon Sauvignon Blanc wines to a higher plane usually reserved for fine barrel fermented Chardonnays and are well worth hunting down.
