Note di degustazione
The 2014 La Proportion Doree, Morlet's dry white Semillon/Sauvignon Blanc blend, is rich, textured and inviting, with plenty of apricot jam, lemon confit, honey and tropical notes. This lush, flamboyant white has enough richness to stand up to just about anything. A dollop of Muscadelle rounds out the blend.

A perfect wine is the 2014 La Proportion Dorée, a blend of 65% Semillon, 24% Sauvignon Blanc and 1% Muscadelle. This 650-case cuvée is from 29-year-old, dry farmed vines and was barrel-fermented. The wine is absolutely out of this world. With a light greenish gold color and a killer nose of lanolin, caramelized citrus, honeysuckle, orange marmalade and candle wax, the wine displays great acidity, a magnificent, massive, full-bodied mouthfeel, and seems to come across like a Sonoma County version of a dry Haut Brion blanc. This is singular wine - profound, compelling, whatever! It should drink well for at least 10 years, if you can resist its early charms.
