De Bortoli Noble One Botrytis Semillon 2016 375ml

And the fusion of sweetness, spice and deft acidity add even more layers of seductiveness to the impressive wine.
A wine that can be enjoyed just on its own or with a fabulous cheese and fruit platter. But also try with freshly shucked oysters or Foie Gras.

The fruit for Noble One Botrytis Semillon is sourced from De Bortoli vineyards plus another vineyard of a long standing supplier of Botrytis Semillon to them from the Riverina region.
Good rains during January initiated an early botrytis development, this was followed by a warm dry February and March which halted the progress until the grapes were ripe and the timing of showers of rain just prior to Easter re-ignited the Botrytis with harvest starting mid April and progressive harvesting of fruit over the next 4 weeks allowed us to pick each vineyard when at its best for botrytis flavour and sweetness.
A long association with each vineyard gives De Bortoli the confidence on when to harvest to reach their full potential. They harvest, ferment and mature each vineyard separately to ensure the nuances of each vineyard flavours are captured. When blended together each parcel of wine plays their role in moulding the final wine known as Noble One.
This harmonious wine has great ageing potential of over 15-20 years. This wine is also vegetarian friendly.
