End of the evening dessert & wine- paired with Hastings’ finest gluten free almond macaroon cookies, chocolate cookies, & poppy seed tea cake. Given the graceful aging next time I would pair with cheeses & less sweets. Still, a window into a well produced 26 yro wine with beautifully rounded white flower & faded apple notes. Medium body & a flavor transparency that I found beguiling. For about 30$ a qpr

Oh boy.... serious stuff. Green peppercorns(?) and acacia aroma. Kind of herbal and minty and mossy. Then super concentrated, opulent honeyed palate, with a lasting acidity. So good.

Accompanied a cheese course this evening, delivering just the right level of sweetness. Holding its own, with some quite prominent apple and touch of honey.
