  Nose: Very interesting nose of grapefruit and honey with the honey most prevalent. Palate: Amazingly rich mouthfeel but this wine sees little if any botrytis. Despite the unreal richness; not overly sweet. RS is more along the lines of an Auslese than a true desert wine. Flavors of honey, ripe grapefruit, and a floral/perfume-like flavor that is hard to articulate. Finishes with a trace of candied lemon. Only critisism is its low in acidity. Otherwise a very interesting and unique late harvest wine. Much better than the last bottle drank several years ago.

  A grape koolaid (only lightly sweetened) with amazing floral. Weird, but it worked for what it is.
