Subtle notes of green apple, almond and dried herbs emerge with air, giving the wine a savoury depth beneath its bright citrus fruit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe palate is textured and gently rounded, yet held in perfect balance by vibrant acidity and a fine mineral tension. Waxy citrus, orchard fruit and softly nutty flavours build towards a long, precise finish with just a trace of salinity.

Situated at around 400 metres on the 39th parallel, these historic vines grow in silty, alluvial soils under intense Patagonian sunlight. Cold nights slow the ripening process, preserving the acidity and precision that give this wine its remarkable vitality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wine Republic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54799797649793,"sku":null,"price":33.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/0513\/9841\/files\/semillon2021-01.jpg?v=1762284753","url":"https:\/\/www.wine-republic.co.uk\/products\/2024-old-vines-semillon-from-patagonia-matias-riccitelli","provider":"Wine Republic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
