| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
Clarence Dillon |
| This blend of Sauvignon and Semillon has a very light yellow colour. Shy, slightly spicy, fresh apple nose. Crisp, dry, medium-light bodied, tangy, ripe lemon-apple flavours with a clean finish. Rather innocuous and lacks mid palate. Tasted once. |

| TASTING NOTE: Clarendelle Blanc is a typical blend for the region of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc, about 60 per cent Semillon in this case. It has a very pale gold colour, and a subtle, fresh nose of peaches and pear, with a little floral note and just a hint of a mealy richness. On the palate it is medium-bodied with punchy white fruit flavours, and a dry, mineral acidity running through it. This is very restrained and grown-up in style, with minimal oak influence and a food-friendly, savoury quality. (Tom Cannavan, wine-pages.com, Aug. 2006). |
