Semillon
Sémillon is a dry white wine made from Sémillon grapes. Although native to Bordeaux, the grapes are widely grown in Australia in the Hunter Valley, and to a lesser extent in South Africa, Chile, California, Canada, and New Zealand.
After Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, Sémillon is the 3rd most planted white wine variety in France. The wine is characterized by its fruity flavors of apple, lemon, green papaya, and pear. The flavor is also waxy, which is often described as lanolin.
Due to its moderate body and fresh flavors, it is recommended to pair Sémillon with bold and aromatic dishes of Indian and Asian cuisine, as well as sushi and foie gras.
