This hot, dry year made it difficult for noble rot to develop so the harvest was late. A low yield, high alcohol wine. Kumquat and mandarins on the nose. A real tarry kickback to it. Deep oranges all through. The sweetness is drying up and the roasted element is taking over giving it a very individual character. Seize it now. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

當年天氣炎熱乾燥，貴腐菌難以滋生，因此較晚收成，是一款低產量、酒精度高的佳釀。洋溢金錢桔、柑橘與香橙的芬芳，醇正的焦油香緊接而至。甜味逐漸散去後，一股烘培香味襲來，賦予美酒獨特的個性。機不可失！施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
