| Medium-light yellow colour. Rich, very sweet, honeyed, mango-peach nose with some caramel and Seville orange marmalade notes. Sweet, medium-deep bodied, harmonious, viscous, rich, ripe peach-mango pie flavours with lingering, fairly high acid , tropical-tinged, buttery-caramel finish. Very nice! TONY ASPLER / 91-points / TRY - Old gold colour; honey and mango on the nose; full-bodied, sweet, honeyed peach and mango flavours with just enough acidity for balance; great length on the palate. Has 12.2% alcohol and 143 g/L residual sugar. |

| TASTING NOTE: Identifiably gewürztraminer in flavour, this also has a dose of the bitterness that you often find in the back palate of the variety. The bitterness here is a nice counterpoint to the sweetness (about 200g/L of residual sugar), which is also moderated by the clean acidity. Overall it's an interesting and nicely balanced icewine. Score - 4 Stars (out of 5) (Rod Phillips, rodphillipsonwine.com, Feb. 14, 2017) |
