Dolce 2006 Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley)

Country: US /
Variety: Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc California
Winery: Dolce / Napa Valley

With this wine, Dolce cements its status as California’s most consistently great dessert wine. This year’s blend is 80% Sémillon and 20% Sauvignon Blanc, and the grapes were infected with the botrytis, resulting in the fantastic sweetness. Devastating in apricot, orange, pear, honey, vanilla and créme brûlée flavors, in an unctuous, viscous texture, with wonderfully clean acidity, it’s certainly one of the greatest sweet California wines in memory.
