Wine Review: This light yellow colored dessert wine from Lamoreaux Landing is fantastic! It opens with a fragrant ripe pear and orange bouquet. On the palate, this wine is sweet, viscous, and displays lots of ripe fruit flavors. Those flavors are a very tasty blend of apricot and honey with just a touch of golden delicious apple. The finish remains sweet and lingers for a while. No need for other desserts. This wine will cover it all. Enjoy with someone special. Cheers - Ken

Winemaker Notes: An extremely intense golden raisin, apricot and honey character makes this limited production wine a dessert in itself. It will also hold its own when paired with very rich and sweet fare like creme brulee, mincemeat pie and english trifle.
