Medium to full tawny/burnished brown colour with a yellow rim. Fragrant nose reflecting fresh, young muscat fruit of real charm as well as some older material in the blend. Very sweet and oily on the palate; fairly hot spirit; syrupy and unctuous. A sip or two will do. Impressive wine, but really relies on humungous sweetness to impress. Good icecream topping.
