| Bright light reddish pink colour. Sweet, ripe plum-strawberry puree nose with some vanilla notes. Sweet, medium-light bodied, fairly viscous, soft, fresh plum-strawberry flavours with a lingering, fairly crisp finish. Ready-to-drink. Has 9.5% alcohol and 245 g/L residual sugar. Not up to the much fresher, brighter, recommended 2012 (***) released on February 1, 2014 at $39.95. Pass at the price. |

| TASTING NOTE: Lovely mouth-watering acidity balances deliciously sweet notions of strawberry-rhubarb pie, crabapple jelly, sweet pimento, and candied red grapefruit. A simply superb red Icewine from a local star producer. (VINTAGES panel, Oct. 2014) |
