Picardy Wines Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2025 from Pemberton, WA is a super‑classic, old‑world‑styled white – very pale straw with green tinges, packed with energy yet beautifully refined, and exactly the sort of crisp, coastal blend you want in the fridge for warm Aussie evenings. Three Sauvignon Blanc clones co‑fermented with 15% Semillon give layers of interest without losing freshness.

On the nose and palate, Picardy Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2025 is a crisp fruit‑salad of apple, pear, lime, grapefruit and kiwifruit, underlined by briney salinity and flinty, herbaceous notes. Aromatics of passionfruit, cut grass, gooseberry and lemon mingle with stone fruit, melon and sweetened citrus, plus hints of jasmine and elderflower. Lively acidity and a gentle grip through the mid‑palate keep it long, dry and convincing, with a clean, refreshing finish and drinking window comfortably out to 2031.

Food‑wise, this Picardy Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2025 is spot‑on with freshly shucked oysters, grilled fish, shellfish and bright salads, where its citrus, saline and herbaceous profile really sings. It’s also excellent with goat’s cheese, light Asian dishes and simple sunshine snacks, making it a versatile, drink‑young style that still has the structure to pick up extra nuance over a few years in the cellar.
