Robert Parker
This extraordinary nectar, made from sugar-laden grapes, catches the eye with its brilliant golden-yellow color and syrupy texture. Its complex, exotic nose reveals intense notes of apricot, citrus and melon, complemented by dried nuts. On the palate, its rich, dense texture envelops the palate with notes of dried fruit and nuts, followed by a touch of caramel and vanilla. Sweetness is balanced by biting acidity. An exceptional wine!
