A Best Buy
TASTING NOTE: Black currant, wild strawberries and dried roses make for a fragrant start to this rosy-hued icewine. Intensely sugary sweet with berry compote flavours, the acid is vivid and balances this unctuous dessert or cheese wine. Score - 89 (D.J. Kearney, winealign.com, Aug. 6, 2014) Price $ 29.95
