This is at a very different place from when I originally tasted. This has developed a lot of sweetness and has become so much more concentrated. It now has a golden syrup colour with a fading nose of honeysuckle and peach. The taste has developed a heady sweetness, lots of complexity of peach, lychee and pineapple. I never expected this from such a wine that I have kept for such a long time. It needs cheese or a rich pudding and was way too over developed for the Thai curry I paired it with. Age does equal complixity for sure here.
