Golden amber. Aroma of honeysuckle, apricot, juicy sweet peach. Palate entry of waxy mouthfeel ans sweet lemonade, followed by vanilla, lemon peel, pineapple and sweet tangerine. Long finish of gentle oak, lemon pips, orange and mint. A very balanced white Bordeaux at its peak after 15 years, very rich and complex.

It was a sister bottle of the one consumed on April 29. This showed much better condition- same honey and caramel scent; my 12 year old son who sniffed the wine from the glass noted that it does not smell like wine at all. Color was much less concentration of yellow. Remarkable, oily but crispy taste. Great wine.

This bottle was unfortunately overdue - however very strong and pleasant nose of honey, caramel flavor. Very dark yellow, straw color. Tasted more like to the dry sherry or dry Sauterne

Brilliantly preserved bottle. Deep hay color, distinctive white Bordeaux mineral taste, very nice on the palate.
