Tried this tonight for the first time in a year. Love this wine: like peach juice on the tongue, but then with a zingy, acidic finish that cleanses the tongue before the sweetness can stick. Peach and petrol on the nose. Concentrated almost like a dessert wine, but with a long, stonier finish. Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum.

Burgundian cat pee, stone, lemon. Drinking well now, seems built to last. Quite a deal on closeout for $6.99.
