Probably a little past its prime but a very interesting wine indeed! At first, I thought I had the typical overoaked bitter PM wine....that is until the twenty minute mark. It turned into an interesting salty caramel covered cashew flavor and then at the 1/2 hour mark it turned into a lovely creamy buttered popcorn and pineapple/guava mixture. The oak receeded to a "normal" level. At minute 40, it started to fade into a flowery, lighter aspect. Really fun to drink.

Color was vibrant gold. Very youthful with immensley concentracted lemon and tropical flavors. Great acidity and the after taste lasted for minutes. Wow
