Wine Review: This light yellow colored dessert wine from Navarro opens with a fragrant ripe apricot bouquet with a hint of tangerine. On the palate, this wine is medium to full bodied, syrupy, and very sweet. The flavor profile is the best orange marmalade jam you have ever tried. There are also notes of honey and a dash of brown sugar. The finish remains sweet and lingers for a little bit. This wine is a dessert all by itself and does not need anything else. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Orange blossom and passion fruit aromas chase flavors of Satsuma orange, apricot, peach and honey. Luxuriously silky and exotic; the high acidity promises a decade or two of pleasure. We produced only 200 bottles in 750 ml and 3,756 bottles in 375 ml.
