A wine from one of the estates that is world famous for its dessert wines, that reliably gets botrytis concentration from the humidity from a large lake beside the vineyards. This blend of different grapes is intensely delicious while remaining more elegant than syrupy. The honey sweetness is well balanced by citrus acidity, and features rich tropical flavors of pineapple, molasses, cinnamon, and vanilla.

Deep yellow in colour with notes of honeyed stone fruit, tropical and dried fruit. Slightly spicy and pretty sweet this has enough acidity to keep things balanced. Creamy texture. Decent length. Very good.

Yellow with green hues; sweet, surprisingly exotic floral notes which make me think there are some aromatic grapes in here (though not) like Gewurz or Sauv Blanc, pretty, nice limey underpinning, tropical fruit, mango, apricot; expansive on the palate, syrupy, golden raisin and same floral notes echoing on the long finish; I would like a bit more lift but this is very tasty.

Elegant wine with great balance sweetness and acidity.
Fresh, with medium lengh finish. Can be kept easily a decade longer.

Not overly sweet, stone fruit, apricot, and a touch of chalky acidity.
