Deep gold color. Effusive, botrytis-inflected nose of yellow plum, apricot, honey, and spice. The palate is rich and sweet bit light in weight and fresh, with a zesty acidity perfectly integrated into the fruit. The weight and viscosity here feels like a baby BA. Endless finish of rainier cherry and candied tangerine. Such a lovely wine, which may be in a bit of a transition phase between youthful fruit and mature characteristics.

Just stunning. I can only echo the other notes' enthusiasm. Candied tangerine, honey, saffron, smoke, minerals, endless layers unfolding on the finish. This wine will make a believer of anyone, I'm convinced.

Not 100 only because it I didn't realize how good it was until day 4. Only drank it nite 1 and 4. Both memorable, with a delicious botrytis-y spicy nose, couple with the nahe spice and red fruit notes. Amazing acidity penetrates, so harmoniously balanced with the rich, creamy mouth coating texture and at least a 90 second finish. Ripe mango, vanilla, roasted pineapple.
