There’s no question about the huge richness of this wine—it is there from the initial aroma. It is smooth, totally voluptuous, immediately appealing. The flavors are of the sweetest runny honey, matched with acidity to emphasize the ripe peach and dried apricot flavors.

The grapes for this wine were obviously very ripe before they developed botrytis. The wine is sweet, unctuous, flavored with ripe apricots, very sweet honey, just leavened by a light acidity. As it lingers, the apricot and dry botrytis remain on the palate.

Full and fat, this soft wine has broad, sweet apple flavors. The green plum acidity gives structure, aided by a fruit skin edge. There is a spicy finish to give the wine freshness. Screwcap.

Showing earthy, friendly flavors, with black cherry and spiced plum fruits, this is a rounded, soft wine with just an edge of tannin. The wine finishes with hints of sweet tobacco and smoke.

Strong aromatics introduce an oily-textured wine, very typical of this grape. The flavors are of bergamot, superripe lychee and sweet spice. This is definitely exotic.
