Rocky Road Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2023 by McHenry Hohnen from Margaret River is a zesty, coastal white that tastes like summer in a glass. Semillon leads with texture and weight, while sauvignon brings all the lift and aromatics, making it bright, juicy and very easy to drink.

Expect honeydew melon, lime zest, loquat and passionfruit with fresh‑cut grass, lychee and guava in behind, sitting over a gently creamy, flinty palate from partial cask and large‑format oak ferment plus time on fine lees. The finish is mineral, tangy and refreshing – a more complex take on the classic Margaret River SBS style.

Food‑wise, Rocky Road Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2023 is spot on with seafood, green salads, sushi, grilled fish, goat’s cheese, lemony chicken and anything that loves a squeeze of lime. It’s a cracking house white for warm evenings and long lunches.
