PNP. Cork wet 3/4th up but intact. Color dark straw. Nose has apricots and herb. Swishing shows acid and alcohol and maybe just a bite of botrytis? Acid on this one is out of whack with the alcohol I think but there is some richness behind it. This goes tart on the finish I think from the alcohol. Better on day 2 and served cold

Fairly deep straw color that worried me a bit, but I need not have worried. The wine showed great with the steamed lobster that I served it with. Rich fruit aromas of Honey Crisp apple and pineapple. Rich and lush across the palate with a long finish. Delicious!

Rich and delicious with apricot and pineapple aromas and flavors. There is noticeable heat on the finish that keeps it from a higher score
