About This Wine


Sir Oscar Darby

Sauvignon Blanc – Sémillon

This just in! Sir Oscar Darby Sauvignon Blanc–Sémillon takes home "Best of Class," a Double Gold Medal and 96 points at the 2022 Harvest Terroir Challenge!!

Sir Oscar Darby offers a taste of South Australia with our Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon blend. Layers of tropical fruit flavors and complex textures make this a delicious example of a beloved style. Outside of Bordeaux, Australia is the top producer of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon blends and has become famous for its rich, fruit-forward, New World styles. As a geographically and climatically diverse winegrowing region, most white grape plantings in South Australia are found in the cooler parts of the state to capitalize on oceanic influences and higher rainfall. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon ripen to plump perfection in these areas, showcasing their unique varietal characteristics. This bottle offers a great opportunity to experience Australian wine at its most...Australian! Take it along to your next social gathering, where it is destined to be the life of the party. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.

Wine Region


South Australia

From juicy, full-bodied Shiraz and bold Rhône-style blends to deliciously buttery, oak-touched Chardonnay and surprisingly elegant Rieslings, South Australia is renowned for its wide array of crowd-pleasing wines. The key is the state's diverse geography and climate. With hot, dry regions like Riverland and cool, coastal areas like the Adelaide Hills, winemakers have an incredible range of grapes and styles at their disposal. South Australia is responsible for more than half of Australia's total wine production and makes some of the country's most prominent wine labels. It is also home to world-famous regions like Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Clare Valley.
