Aroma of honeysuckle and butterscotch. Flavor of honeysuckle and citrus with a bit of heaviness in the mouth. Medium finish with a slight, lingering bitterness.

Consistent with last tasting. I agree with 'pupaes' comment on 4/27/09, don't over chill.Take from the cellar and chill for 30 minutes in the fridge for more enjoyable flavors.

would suggest not chilling this wine.doing so shuts it down.this is a big wine with a huge nose of minerals,good spicy,pungent mid palate and a medium, only slightly sweet finish.chilling it changes it. much of the nose disappears and it has a sweeter,short finish. drink it warm with thai food or something spicy.mature wine with some sediment. enjoy.

Nose is much sweeter than I recall in the last tasting; tropical fruit, just a touch of vanilla and oak. Spicey palate with fresh white peach and lemony bite leading to a pecan nut/butter finish.

A big full bodied wine. Floral aromas with peach and mango. Same flavors with a nice shot of acidity. Slight smokiness. ($22)
