Note di degustazione
(for 375 ml.) Deep yellow-gold. Lively aromas of tangerine and pear skin, with deeper apricot and mango notes gaining strength with air. Rich but lithe, with sweet pit fruit nectar and candied orange flavors and a suave floral honey quality. Silky, focused and spicy, with strong finishing lift and clarity. This would be great with washed rind or blue cheeses.

1st vintage made in 1982 by Darren de Bortoli after he had tasted Ch Coutet 1975 Sauternes at Roseworthy. Majority of the blend matured in French oak, including about 20% new barrels. 20% unoaked. TA 9.7 g/l. Intense marmalade, dried apricot aromas and barley sugar on the palate. Deep lightly orange gold. Sweet but balanced. Slight chalkiness on the finish. Lacks the complexity and almond character of some Sauternes but plenty of sweet pleasure. (JH)
