Definitely some amber in the colour, though not having drunk the wine before, I'm not sure whether that's advanced age, or more indicative of a little skin contact... the tension!
Restrained nose, slightly honeyed and might have had me guessing it was a dry muscat.
The palate doesn't initially mirror the nose, light intensity, slightly floral, but a little neutral, though the finish is deceptively long for the initial lightness, with the honey from the nose coming through. Acidity moderately refreshing.
Well it turns out I was a *little* harsh on the plastic cork, however as the wine warms up, it's showing a much more oxidative profile. Still very much drinkable, but probably best to have drunk a few years ago.176 views
