Clear, pale lemon-green. Nose of wax, dry flowers and ripe pear. The palate is more tropical, medium-full-bodied and slightly botrytized, with peach and overripe apple flavors. The finish is dense and tart, probably including some muted residual sugar. Overall a dry-styled Savennieres, powerful but not overwhelming. Enjoyed variously with oriental chicken thighs and split pea soup.

good stuff - drank it over the course of 3 hours, dug it as it warmed up. Maybe a little flabby, but nice moderately long finish.
