Description:
With our 19th vintage of Vin de Glacière, it appears we may finally have some idea what we are doing with this wine. This should
not be interpreted to suggest that there are no new angles to mine. The orange muscat, moscato giallo, and Moscato Greco1
from our own vineyard in Soledad comprise a significant 35% of the blend, perhaps endowing the wine with a shade more
nuance and delineation from these biodynamically grown grapes. One of the challenges of making elegant sweet wines is retaining
freshness and vibrancy beneath the sugary coatings. We are hopeful that as the percentage of biodynamically grown grapes grows, this
wine will become increasingly vivid and focused. Not at all dissimilar the 2003, this wine remains a blast of candied apricot, pear, green
tea and pineapple essence. Perhaps not the equal of a Dönnhoff eiswein, it is not a bad substitute while waiting for hell to freeze over.
