Fun lil dessert wine, pours light straw & subtle greenish hue, the nose is really perfumed: orange marmalade, ripe apricots, peach & honey w/undertones of floral, ginger, lychee & herbs. Very complex but this aspect is the highlight. The palate is big, oily & viscous, lumbering, saturated w/RS & fairly hi ABV. Hit the sweet-tooth w/sledgehammer. Needs acidity & a chill.
