Slowly working through my case of this. Fascinating nose of lilies, honey, nectarines, and botrytis. Unfortunately thin and hollow in the mouth, despite a viscous texture. Interesting but that's about all for this bottle...

Lovely amber/golden color. The nose was wonderful -- honeysuckle, apricots, cinnamon, and a touch of botrytis. A touch oily, some muted acidity. Unfortunately, there's not much structure and the wine falls apart on the palate. Muted finish.

Beautiful amber color. Cinnamon, sweet spices, over-ripe apricots, and some botrytis. Just the faintest touch of oxidation. Viscous on the palate and wish there was more acidity. Lots of interesting components here but they just don't really come together as well as they could/should.

Oxidized but still drinkable. Loads of tropical fruit and botrytis, could use more acidity.

Heerlijke beerenauslese. Mooi, maar afgelakt zoet. Gedronken bij eendelever.
