Honey and white fruits - almost Gewurtztraminer in smell. Not very floral. Starts with that Reisling fruit and "sweetness" but resolves into nice spice and a great long finish. It drinks itself. This is really delicious.

Light, red fruit. Unimpressed at first - second glass with some warmth was great. Ripe, ripe fruit with some earthiness. Nice spice and acidity. Pretty good.
Also the crossdressing label is awesome. Interesting story: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevalier_d'Eon

Tasted like ripe berries and dark fruits, wet cedar, with some nice earthiness. Not very complex, but pleasant in its simplicity. Oh, and those tannins.
We too opened the bottle the day before, corked it, and put it in the fridge for a day. (as liteagilis recommended)

Fruit, dark berries, and wet stones on the wood.
