375mL Bottle
Wine Family: The Nobles
Tasting Notes:
Bright, medium gold in hue. Captivating aromas of ripe candied pears, lychee, quince, and honeydew melon. The palate bursts with powerful flavours of poached pears, candied pineapple, honey mead, and quince, offering extreme density and viscosity. Rich, sweet, and remarkably long, with a delicate tickle of acidity adding an extra layer of complexity. A bold, unapologetically indulgent sweet wine.
Behind the Name:
The scientific name for Botrytis is Botryotinia Fuckeliana, named in honour of German botanist, Karl Fuckel. Living off a vineyard he acquired in the 1850's, Fuckel dedicated his life to the scientific study of plants.
