First Taste: 9:00pm, 8/2/2008 Color: Golden Yellow Nose: Candle wax, burnt wood, honey, petrol, bruised green apples Palate: Fresh honey, sweet white flowers, ripe green apple, beeswax and white flower finish that lasted over 1min. Slight R.S.
Second Taste: 1:00pm, 8/3/2008 Nose: Raw Honey, petrol, wax. Palate: Fresh and lively acidity. Very viscous. Sweet ripe melon consumes the palate first and transitions to Honey, green apple, dried apricots and dried flower. Long 2 minute plus finish.
Final Taste: 9:20pm, 8/3/2008 Nose: Green apple peel, dried herbs and honey. Has a bit of a cooling effect in the nasal passage. Palate: WOW! Organic chunky applesauce with the skins. Honey, browned apples. Very mouth-filling (high viscosity). Very long finish.
Incredible wine... Would love to try again in several more years. Incredible value at $23 a bottle.

yummy! Great wine. Reminded me of smoked salmon, foie gras and strawberries. Slightly nutty. Was a great pre-dinner wine.
