Wine Review: This goldenrod-colored dessert wine from Red Newt opens with a fragrant apricot and orange marmalade bouquet. On the palate, this wine is full bodied with integrated acidity. The mouthfeel is round, dense and viscous. The flavor profile is concentrated dried apricot and moist spiced applesauce raisin cake blend with notes of peach and orange marmalade. We also detected hints of cinnamon and honey. The finish is pleasantly sweet, and its flavors linger and last for a very long time. Drink this gem on its own. Everyone who tried this wine loved it! Enjoy - Ken
