Great value ice wine from Michigan along the 42nd parallel. I have consumed a case of this over the last couple of years. This was the last bottle in my cellar and it is about the same as the prior bottles. And by that I mean it has been consistently delicious. Nice viscosity, sweetness of honey and redolent of pineapple on the nose and palate. It is not very complex and could use just a little but more acidity to offset the sweetness but it is all nicely integrated. Drink it with a lemony or pineapple desert.

NV. Drank the older of two bottles (probably 3-4 years in cellar). Even through the bottle, could see that the wine had darkened compared to the one I just bough. Solid ice wine, but may have been been a few years ago. Will not let the new bottle linger to so long in cellar.

Ripe tropical fruit, with a little glazed apple and maple syrup thrown in. Not too sweet, thanks in part to subtle but persistent acidity that kept the other elements in check. A stellar pairing with Comte.

Not as memorable as previous bottles, but still very nice.

Apricots dominate the nose and the palate. Really nice, long finish. Excellent QPR.
