Medium golden yellow color. Knockout nose combines pineapple, yellow plum, marzipan, roasted herbs and resiny oak. Superconcentrated, chewy and stylish, with flavors of honey, pineapple, marzipan, vanilla, toffee and spicy oak framed and intensified by bright acidity. Impressively dense, saline wine with a very firm spine and considerable aging potential.

Remarkable Noble Rot.

Plum, honey, orange, toffee, butterscotch, and oak. Thick, some acid, and lots of botrytis. Lots of ageing potential and a long finish.

Nose combines Pineapple, butterscoth and slight roasted almond. Very concentrated wine with flavors of pineapple, caramel and butterscotch.Just the right level of bracing acidity for this wine. Excellent, smooth and very long finish. A standout from the vintage.
