Pale straw without a hint of brick. Carmelized pear and vanilla on the nose, no alcohol despite a whopping 14.5 ABV. Delicious vanilla apple and pear with a bit of butterscotch on the palate. Holding quite well despite 6 or 7 years in the bottle. Drink now or hold a few more years.

14.5% ABV Fred says, “Densely planted vines require hand cultivation.” Lemon and apple on the nose.
