Here in the Hunter Valley we are pretty damn passionate about Semillon. Hunter Valley Semillon is a unique regional, yet world renowned style. When young it is crisp, fresh and vibrant, making it an ideal wine for summer and celebration, a Hunter Valley personality you must get to know. Hunter Valley Semillon isn’t for everyone; it is a wine that takes time to get to know. If you want a cheap date you are probably looking in the wrong place. If however, you take the time to get to know it you will fall in love forever.

This exclusive ticketed event will launch the Hunter Valley’s 2011 Semillons. At #semsational guests will immerse themselves in the region’s wine and people, and be introduced to the Hunter Valley’s Semillon by the passionate winemakers behind them, through the #semsational wine speed dating concept.

Mingle with the Hunter Valley’s winemakers enjoy their new release crisp summer Semillon, Chardonnay, Verdelho & Shiraz served with ongoing canapé created by the team at Coast. Be entertained by our DJ, join the twitter conversation, visit the speed dating den to discover which wine is your summer love; relax with friends overlooking the harbour at the end of a hard week’s work.
