Tasting Notes

Nose: "The subtle and delicate bouquet reveals the delightful aromas of yellow peaches and dried apricots."

Palate: "The entry is smooth and creamy, yet very crisp. The palate gives way to flavors of raisins and fruits in syrup. The long and smooth finish is distinctively sweet and full of flavor. A mature, rich and round wine, Nocturne is also exceptionally smooth and creamy."
