"The Rabaud-Promis has a lovely bouquet with hints of dried honey, nutmeg and crème brûlée blossoming in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a viscous opening: a surfeit of botrytis here that vibrant mandarin and dried pineapple notes. There is a great sense of cohesion to this Rabaud-Promis with a long tail of spicy fruit on the finish. This is consistent with my tasting at the property in April 2012. Superb." -Neal Martin

"Tawny orange in color. Smoky grilled turmeric aromatics, the texture is supple but it has grip, and overall the dried apricot and fleshy nectarine fruits have lovely concentration that holds right through the body of the wine. Not quite as uplifting on the finish as some but the smoke character adds depth and complexity. 149g/l residual sugar, harvest September 19 to October 18"

"Brilliant yellow-gold color. Very strong aromas of tropical fruit and honey. Full-bodied, with apricot and botrytis spice character that takes off like afterburners. Fantastic."
