點擊次數：5700

The white wines begin with the 2006 Hazard Hill Semillon (55%) – Sauvignon Blanc (45%). Medium straw-colored, it exhibits an excellent perfume of mineral, fresh herbs, citrus, and gooseberry. This leads to a crisp, clean, slightly tart wine with good concentration and a moderately long finish. It will pair well with oysters and other shellfish. Also tasted: 2006 Omrah Unoaked Chardonnay (84), 2006 Hazard Hill Rose (79), 2005 Plantagenet “Lioness” Shiraz-Viognier (84), 2006 Plantagenet “Off the Rack” Chenin Blanc (83)The original owner of Plantagenet, Tony Smith, was the first to plant vines in the cool climate Great Southern region in Western Australia in 1968, with the Plantagenet winery established in Mount Barker in 1975. There are three tiers of wine; Hazard Hill is the entry level made primarily from purchased fruit sourced outside of the Great Southern region; Omrah, sourced from estate fruit and growers in neighboring regions, and Plantagenet made from estate fruit.Importer: Robert Whale Selections, Washington, DC; www.plantagenetwines.com
