Dark brown in color, with a firm apricot nose. Very nice sweetness, but not much acidity to balance it out. The wine is close to appearing cloying due to the lack of acid. It's still very good, and an excellent wine with apple pie.

Never knew Phelps had this one in the cellar. It was poured for an event at the winery. Color was dark (like a light brown). Lots of residual sugar on the tongue. Honey, apricot and lush. Warm tones and mouth coating. Went well will the apple galette and honey ice cream.

Very dark color. Tons of sweetness, but loses balance through the mid-palate, and end with bitter notes. I do not recommend.
