  Excellent
  This bottle was in great shape and not tired at all. Consumed over two nights with most of it going perfectly with dinner, sole meuniere. A wine grown on the slopes of a long-extinct volcano in a land locked country that goes well with fish from the sea.

  Classic lush Fekete Hárslevelũ power expression from the grand masters last vintage! Plenty of physalis, cantaloupe, sea buckthorne, liver, white pepper, sage (butter), cold smoke and colder candle. Very complex, very elaborat! A bit too heavy on the alcohol side ... for my tongue. Something for friends of pure unadulterated preassure drinking – really really good… maybe even very good, for my tongue a bit overwhelming and stressing though ...

  Showing some age, but still drinking very nicely with a clean rich texture and touch of RS, golden yellow. A very good pairing with a simple noodle dish made with sauted onion, sauerkraut, and cabbage.
  
  Update: A glass+ left in the bottle, kept in the refrigerator, drank very nicely on its own the following night once warmed from the excess fridge chill. Wonderful texture, deep, pure, ripe fruit (apricot, pear?).

  Nose is canned peaches, canned fruit cocktail. Palate has decent acidity, a little of that canned fruit syrupy sweetness but balanced by acidity. Some nuttiness on the finish. Could be a decent aperitif wine or to pair with slightly spicy food.
