Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
BROTTE |
Bright medium straw colour. Slightly spicy, faintly honeyed, ripe melon-apple nose with some mineral notes. Dry, medium bodied, harmonious, very slightly spicy, mineral-tinged, ripe melon-lemon-apple flavours with a very crisp, unoaked, somewhat schisty finish. It’s quite OK but perhaps a tad pricey! Has 14% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar. The 2010 (**+) with 89-points was released on August 18, 2012 at $29.95. |

TASTING NOTE: This has a lovely mix of yellow apple and white peach fruit flavors inlaid with verbena, quinine and lemon shortbread notes. The richness is offset by a stony echo. Drink now through 2018. Score - 92 (James Molesworth, winespectator.com, Oct. 31, 2016) |
