Back to list Noble One (1984)"A powerful vintage from one of the best botrytis years ever seen (which accelerated from a light infection to 100% botrytis in a few days). The botrytis is marked by a glorious fresher, honeyed nose with saffron hints and that bruléed apple/tarte tatin character. There’s also a hint of buttermint on nose and a palate which is wow, very tight with superb concentration and depth of flavour (pithy, spicy marmalade). Very long and focused – still good ageing potential. Exceptional. 121g/l residual sugar/13.6% abv" Sarah Ahmed, The Wine Detective (UK), September 2009  1990 National Wine Show Canberra, Class 35 1988 National Wine Show Canberra, Class 23 1987 Sydney Wine Show, Class 50 1987 Griffith Wine Show, Class 18 1987 Adelaide Wine Show, Class 44 1986 Adelaide Wine Show, Class 44 1985 National Wine Show Canberra, Class 23  1993 Sydney Wine Show, Class 56 1991 Sydney Wine Show, Class 56 1990 Vancouver Canada 1990 Sydney Wine Show, Class 60 1990 National Wine Show Canberra, Class 35 1989 Sydney Wine Show, Class 61 1988 National Wine Show Canberra, Class 23 1987 Sydney Wine Show, Class 50 1987 Perth Wine Show, Class 38 1987 Melbourne Wine Show, Class 49 1987 Griffith Wine Show, Class 18 1987 National Wine Show Canberra, Class 23 1987 Brisbane Wine Show, Class 46 1987 Adelaide Wine Show, Class 44 1986 Perth Wine Show, Class 38 1986 Melbourne Wine Show, Class 45 1986 Hobart Wine Show, Class 36 1986 Griffith Wine Show, Class 20 1986 National Wine Show Canberra, Class 23 1986 Brisbane Wine Show, Class 44 1986 Adelaide Wine Show, Class 44 1985 Hobart Wine Show, Class 30 1985 National Wine Show Canberra, Class 23 1984 Perth Wine Show, Class 17 1984 Hobart Wine Show, Class 7 1984 Griffith Wine Show, Class 6 1984 Adelaide Wine Show, Class 14 Tasting Note |
