Wine Review: This wine was the top dessert wine that discovered at the Boston Wine Expo. It is a white gold colored ice-styled wine that opens with a golden raisin and apricot bouquet. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, balanced, and pleasantly sweet. The flavor profile is a tasty orange with notes of apricot and a hint of honey and raisin. The finish is sweet and its flavors linger for a very long time after the wine is gone. I would pair this tasty ice wine with a lemon tart. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: A luxurious dessert wine pressed from frozen grapes. Aromatic and zesty, each sip explodes with vibrant fruitiness. The lively finish is long and lingering. Savor this exquisite wine alone, or along with your favorite dessert, fresh fruit or soft cheeses & nuts.
