Semillon Guide

Sorted by price | Re-sort by score

[say-mee-YOHN] White-wine grape that is planted around the world-Argentina, Australia, Chile, France, South Africa, and the United States and, in most cases, turns out neutral-flavored, mediocre wines. By itself, Sémillon generally produces wines that are not well-rounded. Combine Sémillon with Sauvignon Blanc however, and the resulting wines can be quite extraordinary.

Clinking Glasses Before Tasting Wine: Originates from medieval times. Milk was often spoiled, water was often polluted. Wine was usually safe. The host would drink the wine first and then clink glasses with guests to show the wine was good and safe for drinking.
