Fowles Wine

It's been more than a week since bushfires started burning across central and northern Victoria, and only now is the scale of loss and destruction beginning to be understood. Halliday editor Anna Webster and regional taster Jeni Port spoke to some of the producers hardest hit by the fires, and outline ways you can help.

We also suggest three top semillons from across the country, round up a selection of newly rated wines to try, and explain why every sparkling wine lover needs a Coravin Sparkling system.

Enjoy your weekend,

Halliday Wine Companion

Lower in alcohol, high in refreshment, food friendly and ageable. There's lots to love about semillon.

"There’s a real elegance... blueberries, violets, nori, iodine, ground pepper and tart boysenberry, umeboshi, a lick of salt and anise pastille. It’s refined, transparent, absent of heft and invested in detail, the tannins softly caressing,"

Marcus Ellis says about the wine.
