Color of a golden sunset. Leather, honey, hammering cold metal teeth ringing acidity, herbs, old books, dried apricot. Crazy acidity and liveliness for a 17 year old wine.

Nose of cantaloupe, honey, and grapefruit. Well-bodied, tasting of lemon curd and peaches. Finish is long but not cloying. Would have been better with fish than with the pasta with mint pesto we drank it with.

Rich and delicious, with dark, perfumed, unctuous smoke. Well integrated acidity and tannin.
