Score 91/100 · Josh Raynolds, Jul 2012

Bright gold. Explosively perfumed aromas of apricot nectar, orange marmalade, honey and spun sugar, with a spicy topnote. Lush, palate-coating pit fruit flavors show intense sweetness and unlikely vivacity, with notes of bitter orange and mace building in the glass. Finishes chewy and very long, with resonating spiciness.

Score 91/100 · Drink 2012-2017, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Dec 2011

Produced from 50% botrytis and 50% cane cut fruit, the 2011 Botrytis Semillon offers a medium straw color and intense notes of lemon marmalade, honey, candied peel, dried apricots and a hint of musk. Very rich, sweet and crisp in the mouth, it fills the mouth with expressive fruit and finishes long with some spices coming through. Drink it now to 2017+.
