From a 50ml bottle. Yes, that is 50ml. Not sure where this came from but it has been in our fridge door for years. Screw capped. Oddly enough, the wine was not finished as there is about 5ml left. I will drink it now I guess. Medium golden in color. The nose has canned peaches. Very nice. Good acidity. Sweet and getting close to cloying. The peaches come thru to the palate. Nice finish. Fun size. Would make a good Halloween treats for the parents.

Strange wine, too hefty acidity, too sweet, no balance between sour and sweet, bouquet too pronounced with a nice apricots, in the taste the apricots combine with bitters and at the end the wine stays unbalanced. However, also a very interesting wine.

Apricot dominating the nose on the first whiff, followed by some candied fruit, honey mango and a little of rose. In the mouth the same, apricot above all, with some candied tropical fruit. Very nice golden color, thick, almost sirupy. Needs to be cold or it could get overwhelmingly sweet and dense

Didn't take formal notes, but agree with previous review, bordered on too sweet, but a very nice dessert wine, had with samples of pumpkin creme brulee and blue cheese cheesecake

Sineann wines and whole bunch of other stuff (Our home): Nice wine made from Vidal Blanc. Aromas of canned peaches which is very good. Slightly viscous. Sweet. Easy to drink. Not super complex but very good. From a 200ml so it went fast.

[200ml, 11.5%, cork] Straw colour. Marmalade nose. No botrytis here. Actually smells icy. Lusciously sweet, but tinglingly acidic as well. Somewhat linear in flavour; vidal icewines don’t to me have a lot of complexity in the way of flavour, but the dance between sweetness and acidity provides the thrills. Good but not great.

An excellent sweet wine with mango nose and palate and high acidity that made it really enjoyable and not cloying at all. Recommended!
