Medium gold colored. The palate is honey and some tart green apples. Soft mouthfeel and lacking enough acidity to counterbalance the copious amount of sugar. Best consumed in small quantities.

This was following an 18.5% Aussie Shiraz so we were all in a pretty happy place at this point in the evening. It was a lovely refreshing change from the wine before. I don't think of the Vidal as quite as light and airy as some of the other varietals, but in comparison that was how it felt. Excellent soft, sweet, white fruits and flowers. Great counterbalance.

Thick, luscious golden liquid fragrant with honey, apples, and pears. It tastes of pineapple, honey, and pears. It has a nice acidity that keeps the sweetness from cloying.

This is a very consistent ice wine. I have had several times and made the mistake of serving it this time slightly warmer than appropriate. Nevertheless still enjoyable and was contrasted against a vintage port which was fun.

Very concentrated and sweet, plenty of apricots. Delicious, but not that complex.

Acidity has mellowed out, but still wonderful honeyed, raisin-like character that displays a rich sweetness without being overpowering.

Used at dessert wine tasting. Sweeter than the Sauternes, and rather simple by comparison.

Delicious and tasty, but a little cloying and lacking balance.

Nice nose of lychees and apples. Sweet, with some balancing acidity, but needs a bit more for my palate. Good weight and long finish.
