– popped and poured – – tasted non-blind over 1 hour –
NOSE: super intense bouquet of dried apricot and botrytis; hints of rubber and underbrush. very nice.
BODY: rich golden yellow color; medium-full bodied.
TASTE: intense flavors of dried apricots and agave nectar; great balance; full palate; 8.5% alc.; easily a 30 year wine. stunning! marvelous! [fill-in your own superlatives]. Wow!

Exotic fruits, nut and nice botrytis on the wonderfull nose. Creamy, thick and almost fat on the palate. Concentrated and long, but also quite tight with nice acidity. Excellent with sushi. 93 p.
