Medium lemon color with aromas of tropical and stone fruits with floral spice notes. On the palate flavors of pineapple and pear with creamy vanilla spice. Medium finish, high acidity ending with buttery fruit character. Ok but a bit too much MLF! Drink now!

Marshmallows, honeycomb, and pineapple. A little over the hill but in really nice shape. Very interested to try a newer vintage.
