title: J Wilkes 2012 Late Harvest Pinot Blanc (Santa Maria Valley)
description: When botrytis struck, the Bien Nacido Vineyard-owning Miller family (who plan to steadily up production on this brand) made this dessert wine. This show honey, concentrated honey blossoms, golden raisin and baklava notes on the nose. The palate is expectedly viscous yet intriguingly grippy, with flavors of dried lemon peel, chamomile and honey butter, finishing on peanut brittle.
variety: Pinot Blanc
designation: Late Harvest
