Deep golden yellow. Nutty nose of almond, yellow apple, pear, lemon. Pear, spice, baked lemon with a medium length almond and citrus tinged finish. Medium body with a nice, creamy mouthfeel and ample acidity. Light years better than my previous bottle.

Pours a deep gold. Nose of lemons, orange zest, almonds, lees-y aromas, truffles. Viscous mouthfeel. Palate of lemon curd, orange, almonds, hazelnut, and some old lees-y funk. Medium acid, and medium long finish. Showing nicely for its age and price

Deep yellow gold. Almond paste, toast, pineapple, coconut nose. Flavors echo palate with some spiced baked apple, melon and butter, and an unpleasant bitterness on the finish. More oak than I expected and am used to from ABC. This bottle was past its prime.

baked apple, mango, ripe fruit, round and soft, evident of warm vintage, slightly disjointed but still good. 2G
