| Winemaker Notes |
This unique dessert wine, with it’s pale golden color, begins with a fruity nose and a wonderful sweet beginning that evolves into a semi-dry finish. We dedicate this fabulous wine to our youngest daughter, Daneen! Without her assistance in ALL areas, we would not be growing, making wines, or selling our products. Thank you, my sweet Daneen, for everything you continue to do!
Our 2003 Dolce de Daneen received 89 points in the Wine Spectator, the highest mark given
to a dessert wine June 2005. Making a dessert wine is such an amazing experience from the high Brix
at harvest to the juicing of the grapes to the immediate freezing of the juice to the defrosting
at 32 Brix three months later to the challenges of balancing the sugars & alcohol. I know you will not be disappointed in this vintage.
