  Almost brown, though mostly golden. Aged, honeyed white with some sweetness, a little less than an old spätlese. Good body, a bit short in aftertaste. Fine stuff.

  Celebrating 140 Years with 7 chefs (Pokai Parera, Ekatahuna, New Zealand): Outstanding, aged PG, that offers beautiful late-stage development. A touch of residual sugar (30g/l) adds weight to the oily fruit, and the pear and apricot fruit marries well with the typical PG varietal expression. I imagine this might have been a little fresher a few years back, but the wine has enormous concentration and complexity. The fisho is outstanding, although one can detect a slight tailing off in vibrancy.

  Alsace BYO (@ Erik): Sweet peach fruit but still very dry and with a med-high acidity. Great wine!

  On the nose, this was sweet, rich, honeyed and with a clear influence of botrytis. A little anise/liquorice as well.
  
  On the palate, this was much drier. Not completely dry, but off-dry rather than sweet. Yellow rich fruit.
  
  Nice and interesting, but not quite at the level of the 2010 and with a small disconnect between the nose and palate.

  No theme night: Deep gold in colour, showed some tertiary development with nutty aromas. Smelled sweeter than it tasted. Surprisingly tight on opening but with air it showed a certain class, very tropical and rich fruit but slightly lacking in acidity. Even better on the second day, a better balance to the wine with a sensual finish.
