2013 Tyrrell's - Semillon Vat 1

The 2013 Vat 1 Semillon is perfumed and floral, with nary a hair out of place here. This is sleek and streamlined, perfect in its way. It is light and detailed, fresh and distinct. It has a balanced ledger of almond meal, pressed flowers, tatami mat/straw, saline threads of acidity, pear skin, cumin, scratched yuzus, bay leaf and Murraya (orange jessamine). The texture is silky, so silky, almost slippery, without being viscose. This is unutterably good. This is me—this is the wine I want to drink. 11.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
