Our 2002 Eldorado Gold is a product of patience and perfection. We earmark vineyards for late harvest, and harvest as little as a fifth of the vineyard, selecting only the most concentrated fruit. Because of the need for perfect growing conditions - rains followed by cool, windy weather - this wine is not bottled annually. Eldorado Gold has intense apricot and nectar characteristics, and is well-balanced, not cloying or overly sweet.<BR>
<BR>
<B><I>Vintage Notes</b></i><BR>
<BR>
Great weather during bloom set the stage for yields to be at or above target levels. Due to the great crop levels, we were able to thin the fruit to assure maximum quality. Heat events in late August and early to mid-September jump-started harvest and required focus to assure that the winery received fruit at its optimum quality. We select fruit that has 100% Botrytis Cinerea mold and harvest up to three times to select the most infected fruit to secure the best flavors.<BR>

Especially good with decadent desserts such as cheesecakes, rich cheeses and nuts, the Eldorado Gold is also good with pound cakes and fruit-based desserts such as those with pear or apple.
