Wow! Wow! WOW!!! BEAUTIFUL golden yellow color, not yet too dark. Killer nose of pure and exotic perfection, with all the Philipines and Hawaiian fruits, richness of abundant tropical fruits, and with an exotic factor of sweaty feet aromas. I could drink this wine through my nose, yet wonderful bountiness and lushness of tropical fruit attacks the palate, and if it is not enough, explodes in the third quarter in a whole rainbow experience of flavors and sensations. The structure of this wine to contain all of this is fantastic and sensational, providing so valuable harmony and balance. Full body, with almost creamy texture and weight. This wine is still young. It finish is remarkably long and delicious. 96 pts today, but this wine will peak at 97 or 98 points.
