General Characteristics
Sweet / Medium bodied. Winemaking: When the botrytised Semillon grapes
are being harvested for Noble One,
a parcel of fruit at approx 20-22
baume is selected to produce the
Black Noble intense and ripe botrytis
flavours. Very little fermentation
occurs before fortification with a
neutral grape spirit is added to
inhibit any further fermentation.
Black Noble is then clarified, a touch
of brandy spirit added for further
complexity before being transferred
into used Noble One barriques.
Cellaring: The wine has been aged in
barrel and is designed for current
consumption but will keep in the
bottle for several years. So far Black Noble has won over 60 awards and medals in various wine competitions.
