McWilliams Mount Pleasant Elizabeth Semillon 2005, Hunter Valley

12%

€9.99 (down from €19.99)

A warning; this wine may be difficult to find if you live in south Dublin, as most of my fellow wine scribes scour every branch of Tesco to buy up whatever they can find. I can see why; light and zippy, showing a lovely touch of mature fruit, with a crisp dry finish. Leave aside any reservations you may have about Semillon; this is an outstanding bargain at €10, and well worth buying in quantity at that price.
