Wangolina The Originals Semillon 2022 from Mt Benson is a bright, coastal semillon with citrus drive and a gentle waxy texture, made for relaxed drinking and food pairing. You’re looking at lemon, lime and lemongrass on the nose, with hints of green apple, hay and soft herb notes. The palate is light‑medium, citrus‑charged and dry, finishing crisp and clean.

With a bit of air, a subtle lanolin/waxy note and a touch of pithy grip appear, giving The Originals Semillon 2022 more interest than a simple quaffer. It keeps its refreshing line of acidity, making it a great option as an aperitif or to cut through richer, salty dishes.

On the table, pour this with fish and chips, grilled whiting, salt‑and‑pepper squid, oysters with lemon, chicken schnitzel, simple salads with vinaigrette or soft goat’s cheese. It’s also a handy match for sushi, light Vietnamese dishes and herby roast veg.
