Macauley 2007 Special Selected Late Harvest Botrytis Sémillon (Alexander Valley)

Country: US / Special Selected Late Harvest Botrytis
Variety: Sémillon California
Winery: Macauley / Alexander Valley

This is one of the best dessert wines available from California. It’s dazzlingly rich and sweet in orange jam, apricot, honey, buttered cinnamon toast and créme brûlée flavors. The intense sweetness is perfectly balanced with crisp acidity, and the wine despite its sweetness accomplishes the miracle of finishing dry and clean. The grapes are 100% Sémillon.
