A bit sweet, but pleasant enough.
Agree “perfumed” my wife thought unpleasant acetone. Interesting but not exciting - I don’t think it will age very well

Stellar !!
Melon, soft vanilla hint of pear drops and beautifully balanced.
It got better over two nights.
I think this will age for several years.

Well done Tim and Judy at Neudorf winery

And again- reviewing this vintage after 6 years. Wonderful aroma, but delivers a little less. Still great fruit driven, with great balance. — 3 years ago
