The aged release – the 2007 McGuigan Bin 9000 Semillon – beat a strong line-up of wines to claim the award, which is a significant milestone in the brand’s history.
“Winning the Trophy for Semillon of the Year at such a prestigious competition once is a great achievement, but to have received it nine times in 10 years is remarkable,” McGuigan chief winemaker, Neil McGuigan said.
“McGuigan is proud to be able to demonstrate the complexity of Australian Semillon. It is the Hunter Valley’s signature varietal and is deserving of its place among the world’s greatest wines.”
The award, announced in London last week, crowns a fantastic year for the brand on the show circuit. Last month, McGuigan Wines was also awarded the Trophy for Best Semillon at the 2018 NSW Wine Awards for its McGuigan 2013 Bin 9000 Semillon.
