Friday, January 22, 2016 - Appearance: Bright and clear, it has deep amber color, with watery rims and legs.
Nose: Clean, with pronounced intensity of citrus fruit of mandarin orange and orange marmalade, stone fruit of apricot, tropical fruit of pineapple, dried fruit of raisin and cooked peach, oxidation notes of caramel, maturity notes of honey. The wine is developing.
Palate: Sweet with high acidity, the wine has low alcohol and full body, demonstrating pronounced intensity of flavors including citrus fruit of orange peel and marmalade, stone fruit of apricot, dried fruit of raisin, maturity notes of honey, kernel notes of roasted almond. The wine has a long finish.
Conclusion: Very good quality Australian botrytis Semillon, with a very intense nose of good complexity, the wine has high acidity to balance the sweetness, making it refreshing and showing a finesse. On the palate it is equally concentrated with also a long finish. It is ready to drink now though can further develop for another 10-15 years.
