I brought it to pair with the fruit plate (including oranges, apricots and almonds) and was quite surprised to find a delicious chocolate cake, too - which did NOT pair at all.
How nice our friends like sweet wines! Have to remember that :)
There were no Sauterne glasses so we drank these in champagne glasses which show the wine quite well.

Dark golden, weak tea colored, medium bodied, sprites of sweet honey, apricot with note of peach and glints of pear, citrus and notes of lychee, stone fruit on a tongue coating unctuous finish.

Shabbat Dinner at Pam and Dean's with Wine (Princeton, New Jersey): This drank quite well. Notes of almond, apple, pear, honey and lots of apricot. This will be really great in 5 years (will there be any left?!) -- but good now, too.
