The aromas of the 2010 Bothie immediately leap from the glass with fresh pine/lime and lychees slowly dissipating to reveal extraordinary floral notes of lavender and a hint of rosemary. The subtle, clean flavours of lemon sorbet, lemon tart and orange rind balance perfectly with the residual sugar creating a full, lush, round palate.
 
‘On a highland trail the place to stop and rest when weary is known as a Bothie. This sweeter styled wine exhibits lifted fruit aromatics characteristic of its origin’ David Powell
 
There are many ways to make a sweet wine and we have chosen to fashion The Bothie after the great sweet wines of the Mediterranean using a method called ‘mutage’, the adding of grape spirit to the must. Wine made using this method is referred to as ‘vin doux nature!’ and is famed for its heady fragrance and refreshing sweetness – a glass of this on its own is often a great replacement for dessert.
 
What the critics think
2010 - Produced from Muscat Blanc a Petit Grains, the 2010 The Bothie offers a very pale lemon color and a lovely grapey, spicy nose with notes of clover honey and white blossom.  The medium-bodied palate is very sweet and very crisp with a nice silky texture and a very long finish of pure, youthful fruit.  Drink it now through 2012. Rating 88 points
Robert Parkers – The Wine Advocate
 
2009 – “Pale, greenish straw. Shy aromas of green apple, white peach and nectarine, with a subtle spicy note in the background. Juicy pit fruit flavors are enlivened by lemon rind and orange, which mitigate the wine's luscious, sweet qualities. Lively for a sweet wine, finishing with excellent clarity and a lingering note of peach nectar.” Rating 90 points
Steven Tanzer - IWC
