TASTING NOTE: This is gorgeous, with a thoroughly evocative, charming nose of flowers, honey and tropical fruit. As good as it is aromatically, the flavours and mouthfeel take it to another level. Rich and honeyed with impressive balance and style - sweet, yes, but so far from being cloying. Textured and complex with layers of fruit and marmalade and a perfectly pitched acidity. Just a wonderful Icewine. (Vintages panel, July 2019)TASTING NOTE: [The National Wine Awards of Canada did not include a tasting note.] Score - 90 (National WineAwards of Canada, 2019) |
