Winemakers Notes

The 2003 Dolce Late Harvest 375ml may be the most romantic wine you have ever tasted. The Wine News calls Dolce, "one of the most celebrated sweet wines in California history." The 2003 is silky and succulent with notes of fig and honey. Every sip melts in your mouth and will leave you craving another. Dolce is an ideal gift that will be deeply appreciated. This is a California Wine.

DELICIOUS. My friends and I use the uncouth term "liquid crack" when describing the delightfully syrup-y Dolce. We can't stop sipping on it when we visit Far Niente. It is smooth and warm and sweet and amazing. Pair it with some creamy stilton or blues and it is nothing short of a home run. Also the bottle is so pretty - a wonderful gift.

Aged in French oak for 24 months, the wonderful flavors of tropical fruit and apricot evolve into perfect harmony. The Dolce is a blend of 76% Semillon and 24% Sauvignon Blanc. This warm vintage naturally developed more tropical flavors than some previous vintages ? A reflection of vineyard location and vintage. The wine should continue to grow in complexity and interest as it ages in the bottle.
