Community Tasting Note

• Jay Hack Likes this wine: 95 points

  September 4, 2017 - From a 375, pop and pour after all sorts of other things. This is an exceptional wine. Not quite at the level of the 1998, which was one of the greatest dessert wine I have ever had, but still in the stratosphere. Bracing acidity is a perfect balance for the honey-like sweetness. Extremely complex palate with a mixture of apricot and pineapple and botrytis flavors mixed in with the acidity. I know some people claim that botrytis itself has no flavor, but you know what I mean.
  
  Extremely long finish. Caresses the mouth without being sugary sweet. Still very young without showing signs of age. No caramel and no nuttiness. Will probably last 25 years or more. Love this wine.
