Very complex and intriguing aromas of honey and apricot from the noble rot “botrytis cinerea” show on the nose, with honeysuckle and a floral note of rose petals. It is very succulent and rich on the palate, and balanced with crisp acidity.

I was not a wine drinker but since I tasted the dessert wines from the Castle... and it started my love for it. And I love this wine the most... still has a hard time pronouncing the name, but I'm proud to give them away as gifts, especially to my boss :)

had a taste of this wine a couple of days ago, purchased one bottle, wish i had purchased a whole case of it. i usually more of a red wine drinker, but i have to admit, this one is absolutely wonderful...i love sweet wines.
My wife and I are not big drinkers at all, and so this wine is just perfect to have small glasses with desserts and other sweet goodies.
