The wine aged very well due to natural residual sugar in it. comparing to last tasting almost two years ago here where you can find a picture of the label this time it is more towards dry fruit and complexity. Wines with higher residual sugar should be left in the cellar for some time to get proper roundness and not just sugar :)
