Quite a rich and honeyed wine. Not in dessert territory, but definitely in the late harvest and vinified into a Spätlese sweetness territory. Peach and ginger focused flavors. Enjoyable on it's own, but more difficult to pair with a dish. Probably best with rich-sauced spicy asian fare.

Pop and poured. Quick session at ES. From Clarence. Appearance is clear, pale intensity, gold colour. Legs. Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of honey, beeswax, oil, yellow flowers, ripe peaches and apricots. Developed. On the palate, medium sweet (Indices 4), medium- acidity, medium+ alcohol (13.5%), full body. Pronounced flavour intensity, with flavours of honey, beeswax, unctuous sweet oil, ripe peaches and apricots. Medium finish. Very good quality. Amazing concentration and ripeness of fruit here. Drink up over next 1 year, not for further ageing as it is already become very fatty. Not for the faint-hearted white wine drinker.
