About This Wine

Flowering Branch

Sémillon

When Sémillon is grown in the right conditions and tended with the utmost care it can become one of the best wines on Earth. Minerality ripples through the body of the wine alongside a pleasant grassiness, both notes adding the touch of complexity to this delicious white wine. The Flowering Branch has these notes and more with beautiful citrus and light toasted notes rounding out the wine. The subtlety plays well with seafood, milder cheeses, and even spicy dishes. It’s a versatile wine that is at home during cocktail hour as it is at dinner. Judges love it too! It took home a Silver medal at the 2018 Sommelier Challenge and the 2018 Harvest Challenge.

Wine Region

Australia

The Land Down Under is famous for taking well-known European grapes and giving them a new personality. From bold, jammy Shiraz to creamy oak-tinged Chardonnay, herbaceous Sémillon to distinctively citrusy Riesling, when it comes to quality, Australian wine can be breathtaking. This is thanks to its variety of climates and terroirs. Australia is roughly the same size as the continental United States, with temperatures ranging from searingly hot to moderately cool. The best regions have warm days and cool nights, tempered by breezes from the Southern and Indian Oceans.

Minerality, citrus, and a pleasant grassiness all make this wine a delight to drink. The vibrant acidity is a perfect match for seafood or oysters and a variety of mild cheeses. Its versatility lies into its brightness, low alcohol.
