  Major honey, especially in the nose. Also pronounced apricots. Sweet and thick but not cloyingly sweet. Very enjoyable.

  Wineflock - Alban Intro/Retro (Home): This wine was once again stellar, showing even better with a bit of bottle age if that's possible. Thick and sweet with great spice and complexity and light on its feet - not cloying at all. So sad that Alban has pulled out these vines... 95-96 pts.

  Glorious, refreshing stuff! Honeysuckle, honey, thick gobs of peach. Perfect after a summer meal.

  Dinner w/ Dave & Chris (Our House): From 1/2 bottle. Deep gold/amber color. Very tasty, with rich flavors of dried apricots and honey. A touch of almonds/nuts on the finish. Thick and sweet but not heavy. Beautifully mature color; nuanced secondary flavors. The color and flavor profile hint at the 1967 Yquem (no kidding!). Really delicious; wish I had more.
