Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Full gold. High-toned aromas of apricot, honeycomb and barley sugar, plus a hint of sultana raisin. Sweet and unctuous but with unexpected lift to the honeyed, pure botrytis flavors. A note of nutty oak complements the wine without overwhelming its fruit. This suave mid-weight finishes with a savory quality to go with its dried fruit sweetness. This is made by spraying botrytis spores onto perfectly mature fruit, notes winemaker Hook. Score: 91 Source: Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar
