  The closure is artificial and hence in good condition. The colour is light straw. The nose is slightly sweet and pleasant. The are small bubbles in the glass. The flavour is slightly sweet and mostly pleasant. But there is a slight oddness that is not pleasant. Low good (81.5).
  
  Cost $14. Per label:
  After-dinner style wine with a soft creamy palate, tropical fruit flavours and a lingering toasty finish. Matches assertive foods such as Cajun, Thai or Indian. Serve slightly chilled at 45-50 degrees F. Abv 10.5%. Harvest sugar 23 degrees Brix. Residual sweetness 4.3 degrees Brix.
  
  Per www.cgtwines.com:
  A delicious and intense wine. Gold Medal - 2007 Dallas Morning News Wine Competition, TX. Bronze Medal - 2007 Great Lakes Great Wines Competition (OCC), MI. Bronze Medal - 2004 San Francisco Int'l Wine Competition, CA.
