  September 19, 2021 - Found this at the back of the cellar and expected it to be well past its prime but it’s drinking great now and has at least 5 years left in it. The age has given some complexity and body to go with the light tropical fruit. A pleasant surprise.

But if you are looking for an authentic sticky, this is not even close to being luscious enough, or having high enough Brix. This is an aperitif wine.

  July 29, 2014 - Fantastic! I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this. Not because Mondavi puts out bad wine, which they don't, but this is not exactly the wine you associate with high-end dessert wines or flavor experiences. I typically avoid listing specific flavors, but to me it was like drinking pear nectar with a touch of grapefruit (in a good way). She picked up a lot of orange. The citrus flavors were not accompanied by the typical acidic citric flavors, though, and that is why I enjoyed it so much. All for $7.50.

  May 14, 2014 - Decent easy to drink dessert wine with floral and tropical fruit notes. It could have used a bit more acid to balance the moderate sweetness and overall it lacked intensity.

  January 28, 2014 - Light golden color. Sugary honeysuckle aroma with a hint of citrus in the background. Smooth as silk to the taste. Apricot flavor is delicious. Decently long finish.
