On the nose was peach, honey, butterscotch and lilac. I swirled and let this open for about 15 minutes before enjoying. The nose poured open as this was decanted, almost like potpourri. This wine is surprisingly dry and light with hints of hay, butter, and nuts on the palate. After swallowing, it is gone with virtually no finish.
I wasn't wowed with this wine but I was impressed with the taste after 24+ years. I read that this wine was best somewhere around 2005. It was not "hot" at all. The alcohol was hardly pronounced.
