Tasting notes
Light, simple nose. Rather basic sweet stuff with an edge of green. Almost very good but not quite. Very powerful. Barley sugar – bit of a bruiser. Could do with just a tad more acidity. (JR)

This wine is off-dry, with apricot and fruit cocktail scents and flavors, medium body, fine purity, unobtrusive oak, and a spicy, stylish finish. It will require consumption during its first 10-12 years of life, although I am sure it will live longer. Anticipated maturity: now-2016.
