Makes me long for the good old pre-premox days. Auction purchase. Good fill. Good cork. Some suspect sediment floating in the bottle. P & P. Bright, yellow/gold. Funky nose blew off quickly. WOW! Deep, rich, ripe, herbaceous, honeyed nose with tropical (botrytis) notes and vanilla and smoke. Full bodied. Viscous but with great acid spine. Ripe yellow fruit (peach/apricot) on palate. Medium finish. Drank over several hours with no fading. Terrific stuff. With a longer finish this could be mistaken for Grand Cru.
