This 17-year-old blend of Friulano, Pinot Blanco, and Sauvignon brought by Maksym was an intriguing experiment. While showing some signs of age and fatigue, it offered a restrained nose with notes of stone fruits, fried nuts, oak, and vanilla. On the palate, the wine is oily with a touch of bitterness, accompanied by decent but somewhat lacking acidity. Overall, it's a wine that's neither particularly bad nor outstanding.
