Tasted June 12th, 2008 from 375mL bottle at BLT Fish in NY.

 

Very honeyed, throws a floral/rose/apricot scent with a great pervasive gravelly spice; empties the sinuses; good weight comes from the sugar but not overpoweringly sweet; palate conveys dried lychee and potpourri with some botrytized smoke huffing and puffing.  Paired with acacia-marinated Chilean sea bass at restaurant.  92 points.

NB: Notes taken from 2nd bottle served.  1st bottle had TCA, and the 3rd bottle was mildly oxidized.
