Reviews:

• Wine Spectator: Intense and vibrant, with citrus peel, tobacco leaf, honeysuckle, honeydew melon, spicy fig preserves and fresh peach flavors. Rich and fleshy-textured, but with an acidity and structure that gives the flavors some traction.

• Wine Enthusiast: Year in and year out, Dolce is one of California’s greatest sweet dessert wines, and in 2005, it may stand supreme. It’s an impossibly rich wine, mainly because the botrytis mold developed perfectly in this fine vintage. Shows fabulous flavors of apricot purée, vanilla-infused crême brulée, pineapple sorbet and candied ginger, balanced with brilliant acidity. The residual sugar is 12 percent.

Producer Information

Dolce was founded in 1989 by the three partners of Far Niente as they started pursuing the goal of creating world-class late-harvest wine in the Napa Valley. Dolce devotes itself exclusively to the production of a single late-harvest wine blended from botrytised Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc.
