Blind, I was absolutely convinced this was Portugal - some Douro thing, maybe a white from a producer flirting with oxidation. Very tasty. Great minerality, cheese notes (like baked Camembert, all gooey and rich), lovely roundness, creamy texture that coats your mouth. High acidity keeps it from being cloying, beautiful mineral edge underneath. Turns out: old Australia. Semillon that's been sitting around long enough to become interesting.
