A really nice dessert wine that is about much more than the sweetness. The color is a striking dark gold/amber. Pungent floral nose filled with citrus and harvest fruits, delivers on palate with powerful flavors of marmelade, apricot, pear, orange blossom. Vibrant acidity easily balances the sweetness.

Popped and poured from a 375. Served at room temp. Dark golden amber in color. Nose of apricots, lychee, honey, hint of a creamcicle. Palate of honeyed pear, nutmeg, a hint of persimmon, with a little petrol funk and spicy zest going on towards the back end. Long finish and good acidity to this wine to keep the body in balance and makes the mouth water. Tip my hat to Jim once again. Hold or drink. 50+5+12+17+8

A nice wine with decent acidity and residual sugar.
