Very dark in color. Unctuous, thick and fragrant. Honey-like quality with being overly sweet or syrupy. Perfect wit a foie gras terrine appetizer. Became more nuanced with time when we drank it with dessert. Sorry I did not buy more of it.

Champagne Dinner at Lantern (Chapel Hill, NC): So, what's a night without opening a ZH? I brought this along as a bonus to have after the Champagnes. Light gold in color and extremely young. Roses dominate the nose and palate along with honey and Windsbuhl typical smoke. A tremendously powerful wine with great concentration and extract. Superb richness matches well with the sweetness. Will be other-worldly in 10-15 years! 50+13+13+9+9 = 94.

Great wine, still super fresh, displaying almost more botrytis than gew-character at this point

Bursting with apricots and honey, this is rich and viscous with a long, surprisingly clean finish. Just beautiful.
