Due to its popularity \u0026amp; ultimate suitability to the Margaret River region a second block was planted in 1988. Originally all spur pruned on a VSP trellis, the majority was converted to cane pruned lyre trellis in the early-1990s chasing more of the primary fruit flavours the variety has to offer while still incorporating the grassier flavours from the mixture of spur and cane pruned VSP rows. Coupled with the application of composted mulch over several years, the vineyard shows exceptional health and balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVINTAGE NOTES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003eSince 1978, when our record-keeping began, we have had less than 200mm of cumulative rainfall over the seven-month period from September to April only five times. This includes the 2023-24 season, which was also the driest (123.95mm) on record. Along with consistent, above average temperatures (only one above 40 degrees though) and lower yields across the board, we experienced an early, fast-paced vintage. Our first Chardonnay pick came into the winery on 24th January and the last of our Cabernet Sauvignon on 21st February. Thanks to a prolonged and abundant Marri blossom, bird pressure was minimal and the season has given us fruit of impeccable quality and intense flavour, albeit in smaller quantities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVINIFICATION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003eOur four blocks of Semillon grapes were hand-picked over two days in the cool of dawn to capture the full spectrum of flavour this variety can achieve in Wilyabrup. Destemming and careful pressing occurred immediately and the juice was cold settled and racked before inoculation and fermentation in stainless steel. Minimal fining with bentonite was carried out before cold stabilization, filtration and bottling. Made in an unwooded, dry style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THIS PRODUCT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Margaret River\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2024\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Other Whites\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol volume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Screwcap\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.3333kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0in;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine style:\u003c\/strong\u003e White (Crisp Fresh)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ashbrook Estate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67907203662057,"sku":"ASHSEM24-PER","price":64.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2435\/3999\/files\/AshbrookEsateMargaretRiverSemillon2024.jpg?v=1794222912","url":"https:\/\/thewineprovidore.com.au\/products\/personalised-ashbrook-estate-margaret-river-semillon-2024-13-5-750ml","provider":"The Wine Providore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
