Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good+ (91)

Wine Review: This goldenrod colored dessert wine is consistently very good. It opens with a fragrant apricot and gentle peach bouquet with a hint honey. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, balanced and viscous. The flavor profile is a rich orange and pineapple blend with hints of honey and Anjou pear. The finish remains sweet and drifts away nicely. I would pair this tasty dessert wine with New York cheesecake. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Aromatically generous, with ripe stonefruit & lychee character. The Muscat Blanc grape brings a bouquet of floral tones to the nose – iris root, jasmine and orange blossom. Though intensely sweet, this vintage holds a crisp, lemony acidity which balances the wine nicely, and should confer good longevity to the primary fruit aromas. Pair with creamy, custard-based desserts like crème caramel; spiced and complex treats, like ginger cookies; or a selection of quality cheeses, both aged and creamy, are all good bets.
