Well all the fuss about this dessert wine is certainly warranted - it is smooth and yet richly complex without the shrill sweetness that we sometimes taste on the edge of a less elegant dessert wine. It was simply sublime served with Maggie Beer's Pheasant Farm pate on petite square toast. A celestial experience.

Well I am used to drinking Noble One (an Australian wine). This wine showed the Noble to be very straight forward. I really enjoyed the complexity and length of this wine. It was not too sweet.
