Nutty but just ok as a sipper. Was testing for a Thanksgiving wine but will stick to a Riesling or Sauternes. Turned out an excellent Chicken Madeira though.

As I've said before, this is a Verdelho that has far more sweetness than a Verdelho should have. But that sweetness allowed this wine to be a great pairing with the BBQ spare ribs I did on my smoker.

42nd Annual Zinfandel Retrospective - the 2015s (R&D's): Light color. Notes of toffee, pear liqueur and stone fruit. Rich and layered, with flavors of toffee, caramel, fig and pear. Excellent. (J&J)

Supercombo together with a chanterelle soup. Amber color, apricot, hints of raisin. Sweet but acidity makes it balanced.

Sweeter than I was expecting, but very tasty for what it is. Nicely drinkable as a dessert wine, with or without food.
