This wine is opulent & mouth-filling, with viscous tearing…

It wears a deep lemon robe & gives effortlessly expressive aromas & flavors of perfectly ripe peach, nectarine, papaya, grilled mango, honeydew, apple blossom, lemon curd, creme brûlée, bergamot, lemongrass, white tea, apricot confiture on buttered toast, cream, nougat, almondine, flint, struck match, & wet stones.

On the palate it’s dry & full-bodied with high alcohol (15.1 % ABV! 👀) and concentrated aromas & flavors & bright acidity to keep it in balance.

It’s positively delicious with a persistent finish & lingering presence. — a month ago

Medium lemon color, aromas of stone and citrus fruits with floral, honey and mineral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, peach and pear with citrus and floral wrapped in a nutty spice. Medium+ finish, lively acidity, ending with fruit, spice and savory citrus character. 230 cases, good now! — 3 months ago

Sweet. Stone fruits (apricot and peach). I would score it higher if it had a bit more acidity. Enjoyed with a pear tart. — 2 years ago

1 of CA's oldest wineries, Far Niente, founded 1885 by John Benson. Winery flourished until Prohibition, when it was abandoned & fell into complete disrepair. Stately stone shell of a winery purchased in 1979 by Gil Nickel. A big wine! Tropical and stone fruit aromas with complex spice and oak notes. On the palate apple, peach and citrus flavors, creamy, with buttery toasty oak, fig/honey tones. Long finish ending with vibrant acidity & mineral character. Consistent. — 4 months ago
