Black Noble

Black Noble is another remarkable dessert wine from the makers of Noble One. Inspired by a wine made in the 1930s, thought to be a fortified PX, Black Noble comes from selected parcels of botrytised Semillon set aside from the Noble One harvest, fortified after very little fermentation and then aged in old Noble One barrels. The aging is done in a solera like system to yield a wine of around 8 years of age. Deep mahoghany in colour reminiscent of the Liqueur Muscats and Tokays, there was ample sweetness with vine fruit, citrus peel notes on the nose, which carries through to the palate, with enough acidity for structure (and to prevent cloying). Another fortified beauty form Australia!
