October 11, 2021 - Reddish tawny with red highlights. Aromas of pronounced intensity, baked red plum, dried peach, apricot and pear, cherry pie, cinnamon, vanilla, floral notes. Oddly recalls nebbiolo. Lusciously sweet, balanced by pronounced acidity. Full-bodied, 18°. Bright, red-berried fruit, peaches, more floral notes. Acidity cleans up the finish; keeps it from being cloying. Not perhaps as deep or intriguing as the muscat, but delicious.

April 17, 2021 - In unusual, at least to me. UPon opening strong rye/caraway aroma which drops out in about 5 minutes. A butterscotch flavor and toward the end of the bottle strong celery seed. Went well with plain cheese cake

January 6, 2021 - Great QPR. Espresso, burnt sugar, candied mandarin orange. Unctuous. A little goes a long way. All it lacks is acidity. Put it in the fridge and it will last, who knows, weeks.

(non-blind - my wine)
White dessert wine.
Medium concentration tawny color.
Nose is aromatic with notable VA (ethyl acetate), oxidation (date skins), and a hint of tart raisined apricot. Dried grapes.
On the palate, the wine is lusciously sweet, with around 180 g/L. Medium plus acid (the acid is probably high but given the sugar, the overall impression is medium plus). Elevated alcohol - feels 15% (actually 18%)
I'm not sure the production method - it seems oxidative. Maybe fortified? -
