Philippines wine supplier Manila wine shop discusses wine by the grape variety Semillon.

October 28, 2010

Semillon grapes are big players in the world’s major winemaking regions. However, they’re more often partnered with accompanying white varieties such as chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, most notably in Europe. They deliver unique tastes that, by popular demand, blend best with acidic varieties. Semillon grapes also deliver some of the finest dessert wines to the table.Wines using Semillon grapes are versatile. Many of them are delicious when young, but can age nicely too. Colors range in golden tones, growing deeper over time. In New World production, particularly Australia, they receive more attention as a standalone variety, which lets the range of flavors shine on their own.Semillon grapes are most remarkable for acquiring the “noble” rot Botrytis cinerea,due in part to their thin-skinned, tightly bunched characteristics. Rather than causing destruction in the ripened stage, this disease contributes to a concentration of sweetness treasured by many.Late harvesting and proper conditions produce Botrytis-withered grapes. For drier selections, growers harvest early, which leaves them less susceptible to any disease.In France and other areas of the world, Semillon grapes remain a major part of the crops, but mainly for blending in lesser proportions. Australia, New Zealand and South Africa were instrumental in importing and developing Semillon vines.Other high-growth regions once included Argentina and Chile. Due to a lack of interest in Semillon wines on their own, growers began adding other more popular species. Blends today are readily available, while Semillon wines receive less rack space.
