Description

De Bortoli Noble One Botrytis Semillon, Riverina, New South Wales, Australia, Half Bottle, 2018

Grape: 100% Semillon, 85% matured in new & used French oak barrels, 45g/l residual sugar

Producer Tasting Note:

First produced by Darren de Bortoli in 1982, Noble One is one of the most awarded Australian wines in history! Fruit is sourced from the same vineyards each year where "Botrytis" is produced with a consistently high quality. The "Noble Rot" affected grapes at De Bortoli owned vineyards at Bilbul, along with another grower's vineyard at Yenda, are utilised by winemaker Julie Mortlock to make this outstanding dessert wine.

A tapestry of nectarines and peaches, mandarin zest, drizzled with a little spiced honey and vanilla scents. Rich, complex yet refined with a beautiful balance of sweetness and acidity aftertaste completing the picture deliciously.

Critics' Tasting Notes:

"Aromas of baked pear and lemon verbena are backed by spicier ones like nutmeg, vanilla and butterscotch, with flickers of green herbs like mint and fennel. The mouthfeel is rich and tongue-coasting. It's intense but has just enough acidity to keep it from being cloying. The honeyed sweetness dominates the palate, and the more subtle aromas get lost, but drink this chilled from a sherry glass with a salty cheese and it will be a delight."

92/100 points, Christina Pickard, WINE ENTHUSIAST, December 2022

"Very rich botrytis nose, with some hot-ironed cotton overtones. A sweet and delicious wine, with some refreshing acidity too."

91/100 points (Silver Medal), Decanter World Wine Awards, 2022

Also awarded "Gold" at the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles, 2023 and "Gold + Trophy" at the Hong Kong International Wine & Spirit Comprtition, 2022.

Pair with fruit desserts and cheeses or, for a savoury match, try Peking duck or freshly sauteed scallops with truffle and pear.
