This vineyard, on the flats of Oakey Creek Road, has produced the majority of Brokenwood’s ILR Reserve Semillon over the years. Lifted aroma of lime cordial and a hint of toasted nuts. Beautifully balanced palate of citrus flavors, some vanillin, and nougat. Superb drinking now or over the medium term.

91 Pts - Robert Parker Wine Advocate: “Just beginning to show some aged aromas, the 2016 Oakey Creek Vineyard Semillon is a recent release that's been timed perfectly. Aromas of crushed stone meet hints of toast, honey and preserved lemon in this light to medium-bodied wine. It's still a bit austere and capable of going another five years or more, but it reveals future generosity on the finish, which is completely dry yet hints at stone fruit and marmalade.”
88 pts - Wine Spectator: “Taut and juicy, with lemon-lime and mineral notes, showing decisive acidity. Appealingly dense, concentrated and focused.”
