Golden yellow. Very intense, deep aromas of orange marmalade, dried mango, apricot jelly and honeyed dried figs. Bright, harmonious acidity gives noteworthy clarity and cut to the rich date, fig and orange oil flavors. This strikingly delicious, refined wine manages the neat trick of being superconcentrated but also light on its feet; thanks to its vibrant acidity it seems much less sweet than it actually is. Finishes bright and extremely long. This strikes me as one of the best vintages of Ben Ryé in memory. Drinking window: 2015-2025. Score - 95. (Ian D'Agata, vinous.com, Dec. 2015) Golden yellow.
