2018 Bill Dillian Vineyard Semillon
Tasting notes
Brisk citrus notes are tempered with a kiss of oak aging, creating elegance and harmony in the mouth and finishing with touches of lemon meringue. It is a great companion for delicate cuisine, egg quiches, and seafood pastas.

Over 40 years ago, a visionary grape grower named Bill Dillian planted these beautiful, head-trained Semillon vines in the sandy soils of Amador County, California - Shenandoah Valley AVA. Andis Wines took the chance to produce wine from this vineyard without knowing that one day it would be recognized by critics as a "Hidden Gem of California." the unique micro-climate and the high elevation of the Sierra Foothills develop fruit with great acidity and balance.
