Nearly overpowering sweetness in this full bodied offering. Honeyed apricot , butterscotch with a satisfying but somewhat "thick" finish. Hints of vanilla wraps around the delicious fruit flavors. Wish it were a tad more acidic and a tad less sweet. As this is so young, in time it could develop into a glorious offering.

Pineapple, apricot and honey. Lacking in acidity and could do with more citrus to balance out. I hope this settles with age otherwise a bit disappointing.
Too young to score but anticipated range 88-91.

White peach, flowers, roasted pears, grilled nuts, orange tropical fruits, candied apricot and honey nuts are all over the place here. The wine triangulates its richness, sweetness and racy orange and yellow, honeyed fruits with ease. Drink from 2023-2045.

Pronounced nose intensity with notes of honey suckle, apricot, melon, tropical food. High acidity and sweet on palate.
