Surprisingly still alive! Smells like it’s a well oaked Chardonnay, with initial ties of cinnamon apple sauce, baked citrus (maybe key lime pie?), and some syrup like preserves. A DEEP surprisingly gold color, light to medium body with hues of green to the edges. Palate definitely reflects the age but doesn’t come off like a Riesling, with hints of tart apple, flat sprite, same baked notes and @Tiva Feltman said even a little cough syrup-y. Very surprising for an old Riesling, one not meant for age.

Delicate aromas of lemon, pear, and citrus blossom, with a nice wet gravel minerality. Palate confirms the nose. Dry; Acid: M+, Alc: M, Body: L, Fin: M, Bal: Good. Excellent pairing with salmon & crab.
