I bought every bottle the local Philly wine shops had at the time- it was on sale for $15.  The last bottle I drank was stunning, this one- even better.  The color has matured to gold, the elixir, golden.  I took no notes as it was a birthday celebration.  I would rate this as a 95 point wine and put it up against many well known dessert wines.  Luscious with honey, apricot, marmalade, orange blossom.  Structured for the long haul with fantastic acidity, this wine is a shocker for the price paid.  I might have one bottle left from my haul years ago.  Current vintages are Viognier/Riesling blends.  They retail at the winery for about $38 a bottle.  Salut….
