Terrific ripe pear and apricot notes are evident in the aroma. Sumptuous fruit flavors delight, with just enough sweetness to enhance the wine’s bright character. Round, lush texture and great length in the finish - alcohol was a little high for me - all in all, very tasty!

Honeyed peach, pear and floral aromas bound from the glass. The integrated acidity balances the pure fleshy fruit in there. There's this clean, almost racy finish that leaves you with a little bit of heat from the too-high alcohol... The wine was awesome with a simple seafood pasta dish - really "wow's you" with food

Intense strawberry and raspberry flavors show with hints of fresh herbs in the nose. No bubble gum and delicate nature here - this thing is huge! You could serve this instead of a full-bodied Pinot Noir for Pete's sake. Gobs of red fruit and spice show up in this forward little beast - I think I'm even getting a hint of tannin? Like a southern french thing going on - but deeper and more unctuous! There's hope for Michigan after all!
