Honeysuckle, toasted almond and peach on the palette. Great pairing with trifle.

A blend of mostly Semillon with some Sauvignon Blanc. Had this at a vertical tasting, liked the ‘15 so I bought a few bottles. Medium gold, concentrated aromas of ripe fruit and sweet honey. On the palate you can taste the layers from sweet ripe fruit to honey to nutty notes adding in a touch of citrus. Long finish with an elegant ending. A beauty from Olivier Casteja.

Excellent dessert wine. Coconut on the nose and mouth. Full bodied, wet, honey sweet, but balanced. Very drinkable.

I first have to note that I tend to like sweet wines. On the nose it had notes of ripe stone fruit and if you can smell honey it would be there as well. Now the tasting is where this wine shines. The “Noble Rot” is there in its full glory! The sweetness is not over the top. I happened to have this wine with a spiced pork roast with a nice layer of fat and this wine matched up lovely with it. Back to the flavor profile, you have the ripe stone fruit and honey notes. You will enjoy this wine.

17+/20 (92+/100) Свежий аромат с нотами абрикосов, лимонного мармелада, мёда и ванили. Сладкое с высокой кислотностью. Отличная концентрация во вкусе и аромате, большой потенциал к выдержке.
