  January 23, 2023 - Gold color
  Expressive nose offering notes of dried apricot, honey, orange, almond, raisin, flowers, spices...
  The wine has a medium acidity however it's fresh enough and not too heavy, sugar has been integrated, superb velvet texture and very long

  February 8, 2022 - DnP. Beautiful amber colour. Delicious generous botrytis bouquet, medicinal as well, complex. Harmonious palate, hA, sweet but well balanced by acidity, karamel and toffee in the finish. Drink now but no hurry.

  June 3, 2019 - Bit more evolved from previous bottle. Still a great wine, complex and still a grip of acidity to balance it all.
  
  Drink now as i feel this won’t change much from this plateau.

  December 10, 2015 - Vinklubben 1983's yearly X-mas dinner (Hos Britt): DnP. Mature emerging yellow-orange. Medical like bouquet, naphthalene, campher. Voluminous sweet harmonious palate. Drink now. Interesting albeit somewhat atypical Sauternes. Hans
