"Pale-hued, this fruity Sem opens with citrus, stone fruit and floral notes, with subtle undertones of white spice, dried herbs and beeswax. It's on the rich side, with a smudged charcoal-like texture but the fruit feels a touch confected, with a synthetic tinge. Despite this, there's decent freshness and a pleasant herbal flavor at the finish. Christina Pickard"
yr. 2017 Wine Enthusiast:
90 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Torbreck Woodcutter's Semillon" from the vintage 2017 on 01.04.2020 with 90 of 100 points.
"This is a fruity but varietal Semillon sourced from old vines around the Barossa. Pineapple, fresh ginger and that waxy, wet wool character that Semillon wears so well leads on the nose. The variety's oily texture also makes itself know on the palate, as well as some oak influence, but both are lifted by focused, bright acidity and a gingery finish. Delicate with flesh on its bones. Christina Pickard"
yr. 2018 Wine Enthusiast:
88 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Torbreck Woodcutter's Semillon" from the vintage 2018 on 01.04.2020 with 88 of 100 points.
"This vintage of Torbreck's Semillon feels riper and more fruit driven than the previous one, and also a little woodier. Peach, pineapple and vanillin oak notes lead the nose, while the palate is textural with lots of fruit weight and slightly forced acidity. Nevertheless, it ticks the boxes for fans of rich white wine. Christina Pickard"
yr. 2013 Wine Enthusiast:
89 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Torbreck Woodcutter's Semillon" from the vintage 2013 on 01.01.2017 with 89 of 100 points.
"This style of Barossa Semillon is a far cry from that practiced in the Hunter Valley. This version is medium to full bodied, with waxy, pineapple notes and a crisp, linear finish that features just a hint of honey. Drink now."
yr. 2014 Wine Enthusiast:
88 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Torbreck Woodcutter's Semillon" from the vintage 2014 on 01.01.2017 with 88 of 100 points.
"More restrained than the slightly fuller 2013, this Semillon is a bit quiet on the nose, but shows toasted hazelnut, white peach and melon notes on the palate. Give it another few month to smooth out the rough patches on the finish, but plan to drink up by the end of 2018."
