Botrytis Wines

Stone fruits dominate the nose which is supported by citrus undertones. The viscous palate displays apricots and peaches with balanced sweetness. Golden in colour, this wine will develop more honeyed and marmalade characteristics over the coming ...

A botrytis Grenache? Woah. Unique. Unusual. Just plain weird. It works though, producing a very juicy sweet red wine that is quite confounding in it's redness and its sweetness but tastes quite delicious. The sort of wine you'd drink with strong c...

Yum. Double yum. The noble intent here is to craft a seriously sexy dessert wine, albeit from a variety not known for it's dessert wine abilities. The result though is even more wildly juicy than expected, a seriously unctuous dessert wine of weig...

Deep golden-yellow; if ever a very rich, fully botrytised sauvignon blanc were to come from the Adelaide Hills, it was '11; the wine has cumquat, peach and mandarin fruit alongside honeyed nuances, and the balancing acidity is spot on. Drink now. ...

Pale straw-bronze; a very classy wine; the grapes were fully ripe at the end of March with only 20% showing any botrytis; harvest took place on 28 April, with half the grapes still uninfected, 30% shrivelled and 20% fully botrytised.The fermentati...

Exceptional green-gold colour, still vibrant; the wine certainly has a serious level of sweetness, but its wonderful racy acidity rides over the top of that sweetness.

Lovely sweet botrytis aromas of oranges and apricots. More of the same on the luscious, honeyed palate. A crowd pleaser.

Pretty, lifted apricot nose - very perfumed and with deliciously intense, yet delicate, flavours of honey and jasmine with a sweet finish and some cleansing acidity.

Lovely sweet botrytis aromas of oranges and apricots. More of the same on the luscious, honeyed palate. A crowd pleaser.

Exotic tropical fruit bouquet, with fresh apricot, vanilla, creme brulee, ginger and cardamom; the palate is unctuous, yet not heavy, with a delightfully refreshing cold tea component cleaning up the finish.

Pale straw-green; appears to be cane-cut or freeze concentrated rather than botrytised, but does have luscious fruit with only an echo of sauvignon blanc varietal fruit in the background. 375 ml.

Bright gold; the screwcap has allowed the wine to develop layers of complex and rich flavours while still retaining freshness and consequent balance. Lovely sweet wine.

Yes, you read it right, they're using the 'scientific name' for botrytis, seen here with semillon and sauvignon blanc grapes that have been wrinkled in two separate regions. The result is a very luscious and sticky style, showing masses of apricot...

Floral aromatics and soft, simple muscat/tropical palate with quite tart acidity.

Appealing apricot characters on the nose, laced with toasty complexity. Very flavoursome, raisined palate high in acid. Great length and balance.
