Seductive-dare to say sexy nose- with quince, honey and some botrytis present backed up by minerality and florality. Medium sweet on palate, rich but also delicate. Rather disjointed for the time because acidity/13g tartaric is highlighted, needing time to mellow. An outstanding wine that offers ripe fruit and some bitterness due to botrytis. Will offer a lot of pleasure over the next 15 years at least.

Sweet wine with very interesting nose which has sweet spice, cinammon in particular and Christmas cake along the honey and botrytis notes. Fruity and elegant still very young but even now very enjoyable. Acidity was 13g/l.
