  Viscous, brown sugar, sultana. Long+. Heavy sediment, recommend decant and/or straining. Presented turbid, so may benefit from extended time standing (weeks).

  Almost golden amber in color and quite viscous. A great nose that opened up with time. Nutty rancio flavors, burnt oranges, golden raisins, almonds, white flowers, and an almost saline component to the nose. Really well balanced and it grew with air time. Great texture and with time the acid gave more lift to the wine that was a bit heavy when it was first opened. This really grew into something special with some breathing. Wish the blle had lasted longer, overall beautiful wine at early to mid peak for me.
