Description

This wine has a deep golden colour with an expressive nose of ripe peaches, acacia honey and orange peel. The palate is opulent and luscious with classic botrytis notes of sweet spices, honeysuckle, candied lemon, meringue and lime, along with notes of dried apricots and figs balanced by a lovely fresh acidity which gives the wine a lovely silky mouthfeel without being cloying. Exceptionally long on the finish, an outstanding dessert wine.
