Tasted the 2013 next to it, this demi of 2012 was a lot smoother, felt like it was a few years older, the 13 had a bit more acid and a subtle bitternes in the after taste (mind you, still a really good Beaumes-de-Venise). Unclear if this was the harvest or the fact it was a demi bottle, ongoing debate, I will try to find more 2012 though.

Delish! I don't remember whether I've ever tried this type of sweet wine before. But I like it. An affordable alternative to Sauternes. $15 for a half bottle. Will buy again.

Pleasant sweetness, with a hint of orange indeed. Perfect combination with Indonesian kitchen.

FWS Rhone Class (La Caille): Nice wine, if not a bit simple.
Orange notes dominate this wine, marmalade, apricot, and potpourri too
Sweet and delicious, but not a ton of depth

Musky bouquet, with nice fruit and nuts (almonds) flavors. Pleasant, although not complex.
