Looks like a 10 year old golden sauternes. Really glowing in the glass.Medium thick, with long sexy legs. At first whiff, i thought it might be over the hill, smelling sour overripe fruit. But it passes and and good ripe fruit and sweet crushed apples and nectarines dominates. after an hour a tiny bit hint of sherry or madeira, but it only makes it complex. Now with more ripe sweet fruits like pineapple and mango. In the mouth apples, pineapple, mango all yellow. But not so sweet as the smell. Nice moderate acidity. Will keep, but proberbly not improve.
