The distinctive, non-vintage wine (4.5*) currently on the market was made from base wine fermented in seasoned oak barrels, and was disgorged after several years aging in the bottle on its yeast lees. Golden, peachy, yeasty and toasty, with vaguely honeyed notes, it's a concentrated, mature wine with a crisp, dry finish and lots of personality.
