 Tasted by ecola on 3/12/2013 & rated 92 points: Sweet and delicious tangerine and peach flavors. Viscous mouthfeel with lingering finish. (4492 views)
 Tasted by The Drunken Cyclist on 3/12/2013 & rated 91 points: Despite the 2009 "Drink By Date" here on CT, this wine is still rather fabulous. Color is noticeably darker than the last bottle. Great apple and a bit of peach with a lip smacking tartness. This would have been a great pairing with an apple based dessert such as tarte tatin. Outstanding. (5988 views)
 Tasted by The Drunken Cyclist on 2/3/2013 & rated 91 points: Really dark--more like a slightly diluted coke. Honey and orange peel on the nose. Quite sweet but also tart on the palate. Not cloying by any means, this is a solid dessert wine that will not overpower. Excellent. (4241 views)
 Tasted by dontime on 1/13/2012: Probably past the recommended drinking window. Medium orange in color, much darker than a typical ice wine. Age? Thick and rick with flavors of peach and appricot. Can't give it 100 points, but if scoring 88-89. (4929 views)
 Tasted by ecola on 3/26/2011 & rated 90 points: Beautiful sweet and deep aromas of apricot, orange peel, and white flowers. Very smooth and silky on the palate with apricot and peach flavors. Not too viscous or overbearing at all. Sweetness peaks on the finish. (5301 views)
 Tasted by Melissalouise on 11/30/2010 & rated 100 points: Delicious (2549 views)
 Tasted by jeffal66 on 2/21/2009 & rated 88 points: Orange peel, peach, honey. Gorgeous color. Very good but not sure it was worth the 25 bucks. (2681 views)
 Tasted by J2K on 11/22/2008 & rated 92 points: excellent thick full body, sweet peach, pineapple, finishing with honey and good acidic balance. Leaves a nice lingering finish. (2642 views)
