Medium dark amber color. Subtle nutty nose. I don't get any real sweet component in the nose. Very rich in the mouth. A bit of dried fruit and warm spices. I did think that was different and interesting. It reminded me of an apricot citrus compute with just a touch of Cayenne pepper added. Very long finish. Adequate acidity, but not cloying at all. Unlike the Verdelho, I wish that this had a bit more acidity. But over all a nice wine! 89 points.
