Wine Review: This goldenrod colored iced wine from the Finger Lakes was well received by the panel. It opens with an orange and raisin bouquet. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, nicely sweet, syrupy and viscous. The flavor profile is a yummy fig, with hints of quince, apricot, brown sugar and tangerine. The finish is sweet and nicely prolonged. The panel suggested pouring this dessert wine over vanilla bean ice cream. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Remarkably balanced, with bold apricot flavors and bright melons and citrus, supported by an explosive texture with a truly wowing mouth feel.
