 Sexy aromas of apricot and smoky, nutty oak, lifted by a floral topnote. Very ripe, rich and chewy, quite full for this bottling but with a mineral firmness giving it shape. Finishes with excellent length and nicely buffered alcohol. A silky, full-bodied white wine for winter drinking. (ST)  (9/2008)  (NOTE:  slightly stained label)
