Happs Sémillon 2021

In 1978, Willy and Irene Happ began planting vines in Western Australia’s Margaret River, helping shape a young wine region that would, in short order, become one of the country’s most exciting. Their family-run estate still champions distinctive varieties like sémillon. The 2021 vintage offers notes of lemon curd, pear and white peach, further marked by subtle hints of straw, honey and tea leaf. On the palate, bright acidity balances the wine's soft texture, revealing sémillon’s understated complexity. A characterful bottle from a pioneering family with a delicious sense of place.
