Beautiful concentration and focus in this late harvest gem. Super-ripe apricot and tropical fruits mixed with assertive Viognier- or Gerwurz-like spices and flowers. Also, distinct notes of honey, almond butter, vanilla, spiced pears. Lovely level of balancing acidity keeps this wine fresh despite its weight. (Price is for 375ml bottle.) - HK 2014-07-03
