Medium deep gold. Gorgeous mature nose - tea, flowers, a deep, rich burnished nuttiness. Rich, nutty, "sweet" palate - pipe tobacco, leather, brown butter, roasted lemon - complex. Good length, decent depth for the price. Very fresh for its age. Nice. A successful aging experiment!

What a semillon! Very rich and with complex aromas (can't really identify them). It has some notes of mushroom, truffles etc. The wine is outstanding on its own, or try it with a creamy culiflower sauce, culiflower salat, crispy filet of fish and truffle-oil. Might be good with cheeses as well because of its sweetness and nutty flavour.
