At 20 years this half bottle was light bronze colored, sweet / sour palate, very sweet but acidity keeps it light and easy to drink, not cloying.

2011v. Light nose with just a hint of petrol. On the palette, there's a little sweetness, and some muted tropical fruit and vanilla (sorta like the coconut Samoa Girl Scout cookies). Overall, this wine is fine, but kind of one dimensional. Perhaps it's in that awkward phase of middle age- where the vibrant fruit and acidity have subsided but the funky complexity has yet to emerge. 8.5% ABV.
