Veneto Underground Dinner (Chicago, IL): From half-bottle. Tons of dried stone fruit and honey here. It's immensely concentrated, with plenty of floral tones as well. And although this is very, very sweet, there's not a single moment where this is cloying. There's a very alluring golden raisin flavour here that makes you coming back for more, but I'll admit, the concentration on this is so high, it's quite painful to drink quickly.

Orange blossom and red flowers on the nose. So light on the pallet almost like the palate of a dry loire Chenin with the weight of a Sauternes, orange peel muddled with pineapple, Rose petals, lemon grass and orange marmalade. What a treat....

Imagine the purest, most perfect essence of fig, complicated by notes of banana and caramel and you are almost there. Magical.

Apricot and carmel with a hint of wet stone. Tingling acidity on the finish. Multidimensional and wonderfully complex.

4 years later and the wine continues to drink beautifully. Should last at least another decade.
