Semillion Wine, made from golden-skinned French and Australian grapes, is usually sweet and dry White Wine. Its susceptibility to botrytis and thin skin dominate the sweet wine region.

Semillion grapes, first originated in Bordeaux, still produce this grape more than any other wine region across the globe. Sémillion is the main grape in Barsac and Sauternes, sweet white Wines from Bordeaux made from late-harvest grapes.

Semillion is also popular outside France. In Australia’s Hunter Valley, these grapes are harvested early to prepare varietal Wines with good aging potential and low alcohol content.

Though hunter valley’s Semillion has sparked a trend, these Wines are now produced in Margaret River in Western Australia and Barossa Valley in South Australia. You can find all the types of Semillion Wines at Hello Drinks Superstore.

What are the Characteristics of Semillon Grapes?

Semillion grapes have a colour range from deep gold to copper. They are easy to grow and have high yields, resulting in them being growers' favourite grape variety. They are susceptible to noble rot and have thin skin.

As a result, sugar concentrates in grapes and makes the prized Dessert Wines. These Wines generally have low acidity but their flavours depend on harvest time and climate.

What Do Semillion Wines Taste Like?

Semillion Wine is often compared with Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, and Alsatian Pinot Gris. Semillion Wine is full-bodied and oaked to bring buttery notes like Chardonnay.

Semillion Wines from hot climates, like California, Chile, and South Africa, tend to have mango and apricot fruit flavours. Wine-makers oak-age the Semillion to get buttery notes. These Wines usually have an alcohol content of 12 to 14%.

In contrast, Semillion Wines from cool climates, such as Hunter Valley in Australia, native Bordeaux, and Washington state, tend to have citrus flavours. Manufacturers don’t oak-age the Semillion and generally, these Wines have 10 to 12 % ABV.

What are Different Faces of Australian Semillon?

The four distinct styles of Australian Semillon:

• Unoaked Single-Variety
• Oaked Single Variety
• Blended (Unoaked or Oaked) 
• Dessert Wine  

Semillion is a vine found in many Australian great vineyard regions, such as:

• The Barossa Valley - poles apart from the Hunter Semillon’s freshness, these Wines are the riper, and have richer styles. They are often barrel-fermented, creating a rounded, deeper, and toasty style. 

Today, more Barossa winemakers are trying to create lighter and delicate styles that are aligned with the current market.

• The Clare Valley creates a slightly structured Semillon that is more refined than the Barossa. It shows good ripeness and richness levels. The Clare Valley’s benchmark Semillon, using hand-picked fruit, delivers layers of apple, white peach, and citrus fruits supported by French oak.
