An abandoned bottle given as a gift. Opened with a raised eyebrow given bottle age. Not flawed, just a bit candied. Actually less oxidation than expected given cork had soaked through. Yellow coloring, dried tropical fruit nose. Palate a bit heavy/syrupy but was served with hard cheeses and that worked out ok. Core flavors were sweet fruit, kind of like a gewurtz reduction. Drink yesterday!

From 375. Unctuous and rich, almost cloying, Auslese-like.

Disappointing wine. Not very complex or interesting.
