Positive surprise. Thought it would have been way past maturity, but this was quite a beautiful bottle. Nicely developed tertiary aromas, soft acidity. A little bit too warm on the finish dominated by the alcohol (14,5%). But a nice and very interesting bottle.

With an interesting nose combining Riesling like petrol scents with the smells of tropical fruits and citrus rind, the wine is fresh, elegant, plush and drinking in a great place today.

What a wow of a wine, which some people think is over the hill. Delicious and elegant.
Surprisingly, I had not prepared a food pairing. Perhaps duck, pate, liver, French onion soup. Next time with food pairing.
