Another "find" from deep in the cellar. A 20 year old white wine that has held up very nicely; not something that you see every day... Light golden hue, appropriate for 20 year old white wine. Intense floral nose with honey notes and perhaps something resembling botrytis. Intense herbal and mineral character that I really like, though less popular with others around the table. I think of this as a Petite Arvine signature aroma. Remarkable freshness for 20 year old white wine. really nice texture and intensity on the palate. Perhaps a slight lingering sweetness but not enough to disturb the balance. Impressive.
