    April 25, 2015 - Viscous and golden. Great just by itself or with cheese and bread--I had saint andre and blue and a baguette. Tropical fruit and incredible aromatics.

    April 25, 2013 - Deep gold in color, all tropical fruits with a pleasing viscosity. I drank it like a cocktail, and a very nice one, indeed.

    December 14, 2010 - This is immense. Beerenauslese-like in its richness and power, though there's barely any sense of botrytis. Packed with incredibly ripe peaches, nectarines and red fruited flavours with an overlay of honey and creamy elements and concentrated to the point that it feels almost solid. Certainly tasty, but hard to drink much of this as whatever acidity there is gets completely smothered by the opaque, super-rich fruit.
