A Vintage Assessments Explorer's Selection! |
This luscious local treat is an intriguing amber tinged ruby colour. Deeply satisfying aromas of strawberry and ripe cherry leap from the glass and are coupled with a subtle spicy note. The aromas replay deliciously on the palate, with the sweetness of the wine held nicely in balance by a seam of bright acidity. Sip this Icewine, well chilled, with fresh fruit tarts, strawberry rhubarb pie, or homemade berryflavoured gelato. |
