Description
Orange marmalade and peach aromas, with a complex palate of brioche, butterscotch, stone fruit, honey and a slightly nutty character, giving a great richness and depth of flavour in duet with balanced sweetness and acidity. This luscious and mouthfilling fortified wine keeps giving in flavour long into the retro nasal. Golden amber in colour, it will keep for many years to come. This wine is made from Chardonnay and Verdelho grapes that have been left to ripen on the vine for a longer period to achieve a higher concentration of sugar. The grapes are hand-harvested, crushed and pressed with the juice is fortified with brandy and SVR spirit, and then transferred to old French oak barrels for up to 8 years.
Golden amber in the glass. Complex nutty, rancio aromas along with golden syrup, bolied orange and spearmint. Layered, long and mouth-filling. Plenty of flavour and richness, balanced out nicely by some high quality spirit. HuonHook – The Real Review 90pts
