Mahogany color. Thick and viscous. Lots of integrated botrytis. Taste is a cross between French sauternes and sweet German riesling. Lots acidity to balance the sweetness.

Nez sur la cire la mirabelle et l orange
Bouche ample massive avec un beau botrytis mais avec un petit manque d acidité pour en faire un très très grand vin

Caramel color, sweet to the point of syrupy. Was ready to drink; don't wait.

1990. Big fan of Bise. Sweet, but not too much so, thanks to the spine of acidity. Apples and honeyed citrus. No need for dessert in the end.
