A truly spectacular wine, it has a compelling nose of succulent tropical fruit and guava. The palate has characters of rock melon and honeydew. It also offers bright, lively intense flavours with unparalleled complexity. It is accompanied by lovely fine tropical fruit richness. It has a long, refreshing finish.
James Halliday Australian Wine Companion
"Putting aside the incoherent babble on the back label, this wine had traveled very well since winning the trophy for Best Semillon Sauvignon Blanc Margaret River Wine Show '11 besting a star studded field. The structure and texture are particularly good, underpinning the mainstream tropical fruit core, in turn neatly trimmed and balanced crisp acidity."

"The 2011 Brygon Reserve Bin 828 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc presents subtle scents of lemon peel, mandarin and beeswax with a touch of fresh cut herbs. Light bodied and refreshing in the mouth, it has a good amount of vegetal and citrus flavours on offer and a medium to long finish.
