Buy Pierro LTC Semillon Sauvignonn Blanc 2012 Margaret River Wine

Pierro LTC Semillon Sauvignon Blanc

Pierro 'LTC' Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2012

Margaret River, Western Australia   |    750ml   |    13.5%
The name 'LTC' is so clearly etched in the history of Pierro and the Margaret River wine industry, that the front label now refers to it as merely as the LTC. It was once the 'Les Trois Cuvées' - for the three varieties found in the blend; Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay while others insist LTC refers to a 'little touch of chardonnay'.

"The 2012 Pierro L.T.C. shows the benefit of another good vintage in Margaret River. It has the characteristic restraint of the wine, is delicate, subtle and fine, has a pleasing vibrant mouthfeel, tangy white peach and nectarine flavours, and finishes fresh, bright and zingy." - Pierro Wines.

Reviews of the 2011 Pierro 'LTC' Semillon Sauvignon Blanc included below;

"95 Points. Continues the odd game of leaving semillon/ sauvignon blanc off the front label and just retaining LTC (a little touch of chardonnay). Regardless, this wine has amazing length and minerally grip to the finish that will see it through years to come. Drink By: 2015. Price: $32.00 Date Tasted: 30 Aug 2010 Alcohol: 13.5%"- James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2012 Edition.

"Mike Peterkin was the pioneer of this style which is now arguably the most important WA wine style because of its ability to deliver across various price points good honest, reliable drinking. As often as not, these wines are drunk soon after release yet this is the perfect example of why it is better to hold onto it for a little while. In the few months since I first tasted it, this wine has settled down and is drinking even better. The wine is largely Semillon and sauvignon blanc but the light touch of chardonnay does make an important difference on the palate adding texture and richness. This is one of the best."- Ray Jordan, The West Australian, November 4, 2010.

The Pierro Semillon Sauvignon Blanc L.T.C. is always in demand due to the consistency of these two delicious vibrant white grape varieties in Margaret River.

Picked and vinified with TLC our SSB LTC shines through each year.

Here is a fresh, lively wine that seems to sparkle and dance in the glass.

The wine typically has restrained aromatics, some lemon citrus notes and dried herb complexities, while the palate is subtle and delicate showing fruit purity and delicious tanginess. There is tight structure with power building, before a finish featuring refreshing, zesty natural acidity. A wonderful wine pre-dinner or a superb match with fresh seafood.
