A well made wine, with orange essence, rich, ripe apricots, a lush mouthfeel and enjoyable acidity and minerality. An above average sticky, considering it cost $20 on release. Drink thru 2015

Wow. Golden, amber color. Pure orange marmalade on the nose and on the palate with some honey. Viscous mouthfeel, LOADS of sweetness and a great, long lasting finish. Tremendous QPR dessert wine. A bit too sweet but so delicious.

You cannot miss botrytis in this wine, obviously, but it is not as overwhelmingly sweet as dessert wines may be at their extremes, and it carries the touch of acidity of the berries.

Served with amaretti stuffed peaches. Dark brown, yello color. Very thick and honeyed. Peachy vanilla nose. Lycee, toffee, pineapple, and honeyed apricot flavors. Very nice finihs, and not overly honeyed. Much like a sauterne.
