Mesmerizing nose, crazy complexity, salty caramel, gunpowder, grilled peach, sweet tobacco, matchstick, marzipan and - as my daughter added pretty aptly - a whiff of 'honingdrop' (traditional Dutch honey/licorice-flavoured candy).
On the palate, these nuances are slightly less articulate and clear, which keeps me from throwing in an 'extraordinary' score. Highly recommanded, though!

Sweet tobacco, soft oak, caramel mochaccino, white sultanas, Turkish delight, crème brulee, peach yoghurt... Man, it's all there... Really delicious.
@Delectable: this is a sweet white wine
