Saturday, September 27, 2014 - Medium bright & clear golden yellow in color. Full, forward & attractive nose of developed & mature, ripe fruit aromas of yellow peaches, orange marmalade, lemon & apricots with lovely floral overtones of honeysuckle, spices, honey, minerals and a touch of vanilla. Medium-full bodied with a very good concentration of balanced, smooth textured, well developed & mature, rich, ripe sweet fruit flavors of canned peaches, dried apricots, some lemon & orange with honey, spices, minerals and a hint of vanilla. Long lingering sweet finish. Drinks quite well at present and although it may be at its peak of development, it has the fruit/structure to hold onto this present plateau for a few more additional years although any further development is doubtful.
