I pulled this 375 out for poaching some pears. reserved about a third of the bottle. PNP. cork a little soft and wet almost to the top but seal intact. color is brownish amber, but this is still very much alive. nose and palate have secondary characteristics, but the acid spine in this keeps it from being cloying. we rarely drink dessert wines anymore but this is pretty darn good and was enjoyed by all (albeit briefly given the ration). fully mature and wonderful now, but wills plenty of mileage left. BTW the pears were amazing too

Brief note from memory. PNP. Cork in pretty good shape. color browning amber. this is a mouthful of mature wine...naturally on the sweet side but there is acid hiding in there if you search for it. delicious and enjoyed by all.
