Stratus 2016 Semillon BA
A very nice sweet wine from Stratus Vineyards. Located in the Niagara Lakeshore region, their Botrytis Semillon has been absent for the last few years, and the 2016 marks only the third time it has been made.
It is aromatically rich and boasts aromas of orange marmalade, honey, ripe cantaloupe and ginger. The 2 years spent in old French oak comes through on the palate. It has decent acidity and packs a bit of a punch at 14.4% ABV.
