Two Rivers Wines

Two Rivers Stones Throw Semillon

Pale straw green in colour. This wine shows classic Hunter Semillon aromas of lime and lemon. The palate is tightly structured with crisp fresh citrus flavours and a zesty long persistent finish.

'The man who could sit under the shade of his own vine, with his wife and children about him, and the ripe clusters hanging within their reach, and not feel the highest enjoyment, is incapable of happiness and does not know what the word means.

James Busby

Father of the Australian Wine Industry
