  Hitting a nice drinking phase right now. The nose is still dominated by dried stone fruit, candied orange, sultana raisins and buttercup flowers. But there are some tertiary aromas lurking in the background with honey, spice box and grounded nuts.
  
  Fully sweet on the palate but the bright acidity provides a nice balancing element and the overall mouthfeel is quite light for a sweet wine. Very good intensity to the flavors that mirrors the nose quite well. Long, lingering finish.
  
  A good but not overly interesting Recioto di Soave that is entering a preferred drinking window now but I guess this will drink well for at least another five years.

  Stellar! Light in the mouth, dried apricots, peaches, and a bitter almond note.

  Väldigt gott. Ganska tung sötma, men lätt känsla. Lite för tunn smak för ost, passar nog bättre till skinka eller någon inte allt för tung dessert (inte choklad).

  I was expecting more of the saffron sauternestaste but instead i think its more like port-style actually (although not as much). I prefer sauternes.

  A balanced, fruitforward wine with aromas of stonefruits, vanilla and dried fruits. Palate is more nuanced with bunches of stonefruits, dried fruits, citrus, a hint of red fruit (wild strawberry), vanilla, butter biscuit and citrus marmalade.
  Not complex or difficult and shows good now, making it easily approachable.
  
  For it's category (compared to sauternes, BA or TBA), it isn't a very intense and complex wine, lacking a bit in aromatics and acidity to be able to compete.
