Dolce 2007 Late Harvest Wine Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Late Harvest Wine
Variety: Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc California
Winery: Dolce / Napa Valley

Another spectacular Dolce, which continues the brand’s string of successes and further emphasizes its standing as one of California’s greatest- white dessert wines. It lacks a touch of the concentration found in the 2006, but it dazzles nonetheless with intricate, sweet flavors of honey, butterscotch, golden-apricot nectar, orange marmalade, pineapple tart, vanilla and buttered toast. And all that is brightened by crisp acidity. Terrific to drink now, and it will hold in a proper cellar for a decade. The blend is 82% Sémillon and 18% Sauvignon Blanc.
