Wine Review: This light gold colored late harvest Sauvignon Blanc opens with a fragrant golden raisin bouquet with hints of apricot. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, balanced and juicy. The flavor profile is a very tasty golden raisin and ginger blend with hints of orange, honey and fig. The finish is pleasantly sweet and fades away nicely. This wine would be great on its own to close a big dinner. I would pair it with Italian cookies. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: The brilliant gold color of this wine is as rich and inviting as its heady aroma. Deeply mouthwatering, it's reminiscent of baked Pink Lady apples en croute with caramel and nectarine preserves. A tropical perfume of ripe fig, mango, guava and plantains deepens and lifts its lavish character. The entry is lush and creamy, expanding into a clean, vibrant and balanced mouthfeel. The final impression is a lingering finish that is concentrated and weighty laced with sweet dried fruit, cinnamon and citrus zest.
