Tasting Notes: “Golden in the glass, with a tinge of orange – time in the bottle has given it time to soften and flourish. Cumquat, orange rind, and ripest apricots – a subtle candied peel character. This is in a terrific place – unctuous and fresh without any cloying notes – bright acidity hems the high energy, honeyed citrus fruits – demanding a return for the next sip. A sensational wine from a true specialist producer – a style that suits cheese plates or the sweetest of desserts.” Nick Butler, The Fine Wine Review
General Info:
The semi-arid climate that prevails in the Riverina softens towards the end of autumn with cool nights, and mornings made damp by fog and dew. These are perfect conditions for the development of botrytis fungus on the grapes, and the production of sweet white botrytis wines. The climate is one of the strengths of the Riverina region, helping to make it an ideal wine grape region in Australia, and the main factor in making it one of the best producers of botrytis wines in the world.
