powerful and broad-shouldered flavors that possess terrific intensity on the explosive and hugely long finish

with dark spice and black tea leading the way

opulent and ultra-intense broad-based flavors also remain extremely backward and tight yet the palate staining finish is hugely persistent

And 16% was fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats

The grapes were harvested on August 31

Expansive aromas of caramelized apricot, white peach, date, banana and butter cream are layered in the noble botrytis. Rich, spicy tropical fruits coat the palate, but a finely chiseled, chalky minerality keep this chenin blanc remarkably light on its feet. Dense but not at all heavy, it finishes long and not at all cloying. Delicious. Joel B. Payne
