The palate is unctuous with 231 g\/L residual sugar, but with surprising freshness on the palate (9.9 g\/L total acidity) due to the concentrating effect of using botrytis-affected fruit. The concentration is superb, with pronounced botrytis character that shows why Noble One is one of the world’s great sweet wines. And it’s all yours at a very affordable price, too. I like this as a dessert on its own, and don’t feel like you need to finish the entire bottle in one sitting. It’ll hold in your fridge for at least 2-3 weeks.

Individual parcels were harvested, fermented and matured separately before blending to capture the character of Noble One.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eProducer Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBright golden colour with expressive aromas of cumquats, nectarines, apricots, mandarin peel and integrated fresh vanillin oak. A medley of botrytis fruit flavours, citrus and a touch of butterscotch with a glace pineapple tang to a long alluring palate. A fine balance of oak, sweetness and acidity that gives finesse to a powerful botrytis spectrum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout the Producer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDe Bortoli Wines is the producer of Noble One, first created by Darren De Bortoli in 1982.
